The Red Devils want to appoint the successor of Ole Gunnar Solskier at the first opportunity with Ajax coach Eric ten Hague, the book’s favorite for the job. Ten Hag is likely to beat Mauricio Pochettino at Old Trafford, with Sky Sports arguing that United are “close to finalizing” the former’s appointment.

It now appears that the Red Devils board wants to show considerable ambition in trying to lure both Kane and Rice to the club this summer. According to Evening StandardUnited have “identified” the duo as targets for the upcoming transfer window. They add that the club is also watching the English international Jude Bellingham, but do not expect any move for the Borussia Dortmund midfielder to be implemented in the near future.
Calvin Phillips at United?
Elsewhere, according to Manchester Evening Newsthe Red Devils are “working” on a deal to bring Kalvin Phillips to Old Trafford. The midfielder has been a key part of the Leeds United team since 2016, since then making 227 appearances with the Whites. A deal for either of the three players will not be cheap, especially with West Ham estimating Rice at 150 150m, with Kane likely to cost around από 100m. However, this may not be a problem for United, who are going to give the Ten Hague a transfer “war chest” to renew the team, according to Telegraph. This will probably be available because the club is releasing a significant number of salaries from several first team players who may leave at the end of the campaign. Paul Pogba, Juan Mata, Jesse Lingard, Edinson Cavani and Lee Grant complete their contracts at Old Trafford in June, and the newspaper adds that the Red Devils will also try to get rid of the marginal players this summer. .
