JAKARTA - Manchester United doesn't seem very confident to get Harry Kane. The management of the Red Devils has prepared a list of players who can be alternatives.

A number of media, including The Sun, reported that six players will be MU's choice if they fail to get Kane from Tottenham Hotspur.

Kane is actually MU's main target. Manager Erik ten Hag is said to be "obsessed" with the 29-year-old player.

However, Tottenham will not let it go easily. The boss, Daniel Levy, will not let negotiations go easy.

Reportedly, Levy is ready desperately to defend Kane.

MU is advised not to focus too much on Kane. The reason is, there are several players who can be an alternative that is no less interesting.

Manchester Evening News reports that Viktor Osimhem is at the top of Kane's list of alternative strikers. The Nigerian scored 23 goals to give Napoli their first Serie A title since 1990.

However, the price tag of 130 million is believed to be too expensive for the Red Devils.

Apart from Osimhem, MU is also overseeing 20-year-old Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund. The player scored eight league goals from 18 games this season.

Randal Kolo Muani of Eintracht Frankfurt is another star on their radar. The 24-year-old enjoyed a beautiful season in the Bundesliga, with a score of 14 goals and added 13 assists.

Ten Hag is also said to be admirers of Ajax star Mohammed Kudus, 22 years old, and Goncalo Ramos from Benfica, 21 years old.

Brighton's young star, Evan Ferguson, is also desirable. But the transfer to the teenager seems very unlikely given the contract extension he signed last month.
