Ed Woodward urged to scrap Jadon Sancho transfer for Tottenham's Harry Kane

Former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen has urged Ed Woodward to scrap Jadon Sancho's transfer and focus on Tottenham striker Harry Kane. Borussia Dortmund winger has been heavily linked with the move to Old Trafford, remaining the top target of the Red Devils for the summer transfer window. While the talks over the possible move are going on, Meulensteen believes Kane's transfer could be more beneficial for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side that are eager to improve the squad for the next season. "They’re bringing Jadon Sancho in, but more than anything, I would have gone for a more prolific out-and-out striker, somebody like Harry Kane," he told talkSPORT. "There is so much creativity coming from midfield with [Bruno] Fernandes, [Paul] Pogba, [Marcus] Rashford, [Anthony] Martial… they can all contribute to goalscoring. But [they need] somebody in the middle who’s going to score 25-plus goals. That will close the gap for United. They’ve got a lot of various options up front with Martial, Rashford and Greenwood, who’s a fantastic finisher. Jadon is the one that would feature best on the right, coming in and using his pace and trickery. It would be a great addition. But at the same time, United need more to really become a force to compete for a Premier League title. He will have a fantastic future, he made that decision to move from Manchester City, he went to Dortmund, he’s done very, very well there. Now, it’s his time to make his mark in the Premier League and I’m sure he will at a club like Manchester United, so he has an unbelievable future.”
