EXPLAINED: Manchester united urged to break the bank to complete harry kane transfer | Rare Historical Photos

Harry Kane Manchester United Cristiano Ronaldo Anthony Martial Erik ten Hag Ten Hag Tottenham Christian Eriksen Teddy Sheringham

Former Manchester United striker Teddy Sheringham has urged the club to "break the bank" for Tottenham forward Harry Kane, claiming that the Reds do not have a "proper centre-forward".

Erik ten Hag saw six new signings arrive this summer for a jaw-dropping spend of £225million. Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen, Casemiro, Antony and Martin Dubravka all made the move to Old Trafford ahead of the September 1 deadline.

Of the new arrivals, only Antony and Eriksen are likely to contribute goals or assists on a regular basis. Cristiano Ronaldo's lack of form this season, combined with Anthony Martial's injury struggles, have left United in need of a reliable centre-forward to lead the line for them.
