Manchester United are not considering a players-plus-cash offer for Harry Kane, according to reports.

A story emerged this weekend suggesting the Red Devils were readying a bid of £100m plus two players in part-exchange.

It was claimed that United's offer had seen them move to the front of the queue for Kane, who has already been the subject of a bid of £100m from Manchester City.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have already agreed a deal to sign Jadon Sancho, which is expected to go through in the coming days.

The United manager's next target appears to be a central defender, with Raphael Varane at the top of his shopping list.

With Edinson Cavani having signed a one-year contract extension at Old Trafford, a new striker is not seen as a priority. 

It's also unclear whether United would even be able to afford Kane, who is valued by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy at upwards of £150m.
