Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has tipped to sign two stars this summer.

United are looking to build on a promising first season under in which the Red Devils finished third and won the Carabao Cup.

Manchester United have already but Ten Hag also wants a new goalkeeper and striker to arrive at Old Trafford.

United have but Fowler believes the Manchester giants may look closer to home for a new No. 1.

‘I see Manchester United have been strongly linked with Inter’s Andre Onana, and that makes sense because his distribution is sensational, and he played for Ten Hag at Ajax,’ the ex-England striker told the .

‘But don’t rule out Jordan Pickford. I know he only signed a new contract last February, but to me that makes it more rather than less likely he’ll move this summer. I can almost guarantee he had a release clause inserted in that contract.

‘Pickford only had just over a year left when he signed the new deal, and he’s one of the best in the world, the recognised number one for one of the best international teams in the world. He’s handy on the ball too.

‘United will have sniffed around to test how Everton are going to handle their ongoing profit and sustainability issues, so they’ll be absolutely on top of their keeper situation, no doubt, whether it’s Onana or Pickford.’

While Manchester United desperately , they also need to splash the cash on a new striker.

The Red Devils have already but Fowler says he ‘wouldn’t rule out’ a stunning deal for Tottenham captain Harry Kane.

Kane is believed to be a dream target for Ten Hag but United have .

Fowler added: ‘I simply don’t believe, either, they will have to limit their spending this summer, so a centre forward will arrive too, and I still wouldn’t rule out Harry Kane.

‘I believe he’ll stay in the Premier League, because he wants to smash the all-time scoring record.

‘But Spurs are absolutely miles away, so he’ll have to move, and United looks the most obvious destination.

‘Maybe all this talk of having no money to spend is aimed at keeping any Kane fee down, as he only has a year left on his contract.’

Manchester United, who finished 14 points behind Premier League champions Man City last season, kick-start their 2023-24 campaign on August 14 against Wolves.
