Gary Neville reckons Manchester United's priority will be to sign Jadon Sancho this summer - but they will not buy a striker.
Ole Gunnar Solskjear's side have been linked with a move for the Dortmund star and his teammate Erling Haaland in the upcoming transfer window.
United came close to landing Sancho at the end of the last season and are expected to come back in for the England international.
Haaland has also been on their radar for some time as the Norwegian talisman has a £70m release clause in his contract that will be activated in the summer of 2022.
Dortmund insist Haaland is going nowhere this summer and has agreed to stay with the Bundesliga side for another year, but Sancho will be available at the right price.
And former Red Devils right-back Neville has given his verdict on how it will all play out.
The pundit believes United will pursue Sancho, but not Haaland as another winger is more crucial than a striker with Edinson Cavani signing a one-year extension plus Antony Martial, Marcus Rashford Mason Greenwood who can also operate as a no.9.
He told Sky Sports: “I think if you look at the policy over the last couple of years at Manchester United under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, I don’t think they will sign another striker.
“I haven’t got the contacts on the inside I used to have so that’s my assumption because they’ve been desperate for Sancho.
“I’m looking at it now and I’m thinking: I think Sancho comes in and I think you’ve got Sancho that will play on that right-hand side. You’ve got the backup of Greenwood on that side.
“Up front, you’ve got Cavani and Greenwood, they’ll want Greenwood to come through because I think he’s outstanding. On the left, you’ve got Rashford and Martial and then you’ve got Pogba potentially can fit in there if he’s not in midfield.
“If you sign Kane or (Erling) Haaland as well, I don’t think that works for Manchester United in the way they’ve recruited in the past few years.
“I think it’s Sancho and I think that’s their business done.”
