Premier League giant Manchester United
are reportedly keeping tabs on Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane as alternatives to Norwegian striker Erling Haaland.
According to The Athletic claim Man United have made Haaland as their prime target this summer.
Yet the report adds that Man United could be in the conversation for Mbappe.

The 2018 World Cup winner is entering the final year of his contract at PSG and could look to leave should Mauricio Pochettino’s side fail to win the Champions League.
And United legend Rio Ferdinand recently begged his former employers to ‘move heaven and earth’ to sign Haaland or Mbappe.
Tottenham’s England captain Kane is another striker listed as a player United admire closer to home.
But SunSport previously reported that Jose Mourinho is unlikely to want to sell his star man and Spurs haven’t even set an asking price.
United meanwhile remain in the hunt for Haaland, who they missed out on when he joined Borussia Dortmund in January 2020.
A £65million release clause only kicks in next year, meaning United will be forced to pay a premium to sign the 20-year-old this summer.
United seem to be in need of a long-term solution up front with question marks over Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani approaching the final years of his career at 34.
SunSport previously listed five world class strikers Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could look to target including Portuguese international Andre Silva.
