Manchester United are prepared to fall back on secondary targets during the transfer window.

United are optimistic about adding to the signing of Daniel James before they fly out to Australia on July 7.

They remain in negotiations with Crystal Palace for right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Manchester Evening Newssays the Red Devils are not willing to wait around for their first choice targets.

The club would rather conclude deals quickly in order to give Ole Gunnar Solskjaer adequate time to work with them before the season begins in August.

Protracted moves for Leicester defender Harry Maguire and Sporting CP midfielder Bruno Fernandes could be shelved for other options if their clubs continue to haggle over transfer fees.
