Merson reveals why Man United should abandon Sancho and sign Kane instead

 

Manchester United should sign Harry Kane instead of Jadon Sancho according to former Arsenal player Paul Merson.

The Red Devils have been unsuccessful so far in their pursuit of the Borussia Dortmund forward with the Bundesliga club claiming the £108million star is staying.

Merson believes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side should move on to another target.

‘Manchester United should forget Jadon Sancho and sign Harry Kane instead – it would make them title contenders,’ Merson told the Daily Star.

‘With Sancho, it’s a transfer saga that’s dragging on now, and I keep on weighing it up thinking: ‘Is this what United really need?’

‘They’ve got Mason Greenwood, who’s going to be a star. Marcus Rashford is only going to get better and better.

‘But while Anthony Martial lets nobody down, I think they need an out and out centre forward. With Sancho, where is everyone going to play? Do they leave Greenwood out?

‘I just think with £100m, why don’t you go and get Kane from Tottenham? Over 38 games, Harry Kane will score more goals for you than Sancho. I think they have a chance of winning the Premier League if he goes there.

‘Would he go? You’d have to ask serious questions of him if he didn’t! Winning trophies is the name of the game and he has a much better chance of doing that at United than Spurs.’
