Manchester United management are convinced by the potential of their attack.

The Daily Mail says United are confident of having the most potent strike force in the Premier League even if they don't sign Harry Kane this summer.

United maintain an interest in Kane but will not pay even close to the £200million world record fee that would persuade Tottenham chief Daniel Levy to sell the England captain.

United believe Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood have the potential to become one of the most lethal forward lines in Europe even if they can't sign Kane or £100m-rated Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho.

The trio have scored a total of 47 goals between them so far this season – two less than Liverpool's vaunted attack of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino but from 20 fewer games.
