Man Utd chief Ed Woodward urged to make £200m transfer priority over Sancho or Grealish
Manchester United are expected to be busy recruiting in the summer transfer window.
Man Utd could ‘win the title’ with Harry Kane says O’Hara
Manchester United should focus all their efforts on completing a world-record transfer to sign Harry Kane over moves for Jadon Sancho or Jack Grealish, according to Dion Dublin. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been backed in the past two transfer windows with Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka all helping improve the squad.
Fernandes in particular has been a revelation since joining in January, scoring six goals as well as providing five assists in just nine Premier League games.
His performances have also helped the likes of Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford bang in the goals for United.
They have won three on the bounce, scoring an impressive 11 goals in the process.
This is despite United failing to bring in a ready-made replacement for Romelu Lukaku last summer, who was sold to Inter Milan.

Martial has predominantly been played through the middle, with the Frenchman enjoying his best season in front of goal since joining United.
The club have been linked with strengthening their attacking options even further with a big-money move for Sancho.
Borussia Dortmund are said to be willing to listen to offers with United seemingly the frontrunners for his signature.

Grealish has also been touted as a target for Ed Woodward with the midfielder facing an uncertain future at Aston Villa given their precarious position in the table.
United are desperate to build on their good form in the summer market to help build a squad capable of challenging at the top of the table.
But Dublin believes the Red Devils should shelve transfer plans for Sancho and Grealish and instead make an outlandish bid to sign Kane from Tottenham.
"I think United still need a 25-goal man up front," he said on Premier League Productions.
"I would go to Spurs and say, 'here's £150m, give us Kane' or 'there's £200m, give us Kane'
Asked whether that was more important than going for Sancho or Grealish, Dublin said: "Yes, I would."
The 26-year-old has struggled with injury issues this season, limiting him to just 29 appearances, but he remains one of the world's most potent strikers having scored 19 goals in all competitions.
Kane regularly tops the goalscoring charts in the Premier League and he already ranks 13th in the all-time list with 138 goals.
