Manchester United sanctioned a short-term move for Odion Ighalo in January, but we’re all unsure as to whether he’s the long-term solution even though the Nigerian has been brilliant since arriving on loan from Shanghai Shenhua.
A top class striker is still required after selling Romelu Lukaku and not acquiring a suitable replacement. Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood are amazing prospects but that’s not enough if we plan to challenge for titles in the coming years.

It’s a pretty bold story to run because any club that could afford Kane would sign him in a heartbeat if he was on the market.

Although he’s injury prone, Kane is a top goalscorer, one of the best in the world, and a bid surely warrants consideration if his representatives are dropping transfer hints.
