Manchester United will now look to bring in a new centre-forward after welcoming Mason Mount and Andre Onana to Old Trafford already this summer.
Erik ten Hag made a new striker one of his priorities ahead of the transfer window, although David de Gea's departure following the expiration of his contract meant the club simply had to bring in a new first-choice goalkeeper.
Onana completed his £47.2million move this week, following the signing of Mason Mount from Chelsea for £55million. It means the focus is now finally on what could be the most important signing of the summer to help improve United's profligacy in front of goal from last season.
Harry Kane and Victor Osimhen had been earmarked as early targets at the top of Ten Hag's wishlist, although the unlikelihood of their clubs Tottenham and Napoli allowing the players to leave without an eye-wateringly high price tag means the Reds have now moved on to other players.
