Manchester United boss, Erik ten Hag has finally made up his mind to pick Tottenham’s Harry Kane as the Red Devil’s main striker next summer.
The Dutchman was to choose between Kane and Napoli’s Victor Osimhen but opted to bring the Three Lions’ captain to Old Trafford.
Spur’s exit from the Champions League to AC Milan on Tuesday night further put Kane’s future at the club under scrutiny as the north London club are now facing a 15th consecutive season without silverware.

The Theatre of Dreams remain the only realistic move for the England captain should he decide to leave the Tottenham Stadium this summer with his current deal expiring in 2024.
Erik ten Hag’s shortlist of three strikers includes Kane, Osimhen and Benfica’s Goncalo Ramos.
And the Manchester Evening News reports that ten Hag is ‘intent’ on signing the 29-year-old and that he is his prime striker target.
United are said to be hopeful of landing Kane should Spurs finish outside the top four and believe that would also help lower the asking price to below £100m.
