Manchester United clearing the decks for this 31 goal sensation?

Virtually every team got Kaned last season

Hotshot

Falcao gone. RvP gone. Yet Manchester United have far more games next season now that they have returned to the top table of European football.

Anyone would think that they are clearing the decks for a superstar arrival!

In truth we have maintained all summer that we can’t see Manchester United signing an established world star up top. Why? Because Louis loves the 4-3-3 and that only allows for one centre forward. And that will surely be Wayne Rooney next season.

If LvG does bring in a household name then he will once more have to change his system to accommodate Wazza and the new man.

We think it’s more likely that Manchester United will sign a younger player who can grow into the team. When you look around Europe there are two obvious choices.

Alexandre Lacazette has been linked to Manchester United regularly and we think that he is going to be a very good striker for a very good club. He’s quick, strong and doesn’t mess about when he gets a sniff of goal.

But the number one choice would have to be the sensational Hary Kane, who scored 31 goals for Spurs in 51 appearances last season. Many of the sports pages went with the Kane to United link again over the weekend and he would be a fantastic addition for the club.

But it will take a monumental effort to sign him. He loves Spurs and the club will do everything that they can to hold on to him – at least in the short term.

If the player were to change is mind and become tempted by a move to Manchester and The Champions League then things could change quickly. But, as things stand, Manchester United may have to look elsewhere.
