5 players Manchester United should target instead of Cristiano Ronaldo

#2 Harry Kane

Harry Kane has been a consistent performer for Tottenham

Just envision a Lukaku-Kane partnership and how they would lit up Old Trafford every other weekend. However, there are a number of hurdles to pay attention to before going on with our footballing fantasies.

Daniel Levy isn't a keen admirer of the idea of selling his players to rival English clubs, which makes this deal tedious even more than it seems. However, should United succeed in bringing the Englishman to Old Trafford, no doubt he would upgrade their attacking department.

Former manager Zinedine Zidane rested his 33-year-old talisman for big games, allowing him to miss the league games. In season 2017/18, Cristiano Ronaldo made only 27 league appearances, 10 lesser than that of Harry Kane. If Jose Mourinho opts for signing Kane, he won't have to worry about that since the Englishman is only 24.

Kane has been one of the most consistent players in the Premier League for the last few years. His wage demands definitely won't be the same as that of Ronaldo, would they? Also, the English skipper guarantees handsome returns on investment, considering his goal-scoring feats and comparing his age to that of the Real Madrid superstar.

Definitely worth targeting, isn't he?
