The transfer window might be over 120 days away from opening.
But reports suggest that manager Erik ten Hag has already set his signings on completing two significant arrivals.
The Dutchman would like a central defender and genuine goalscorer to bolster his options ahead of the 2023-24 Premier League campaign.
And the Manchester Evening News claim that United have compiled a list of players they are prepared to sell to finance the deals.
Attacking options include Tottenham’s Harry Kane, Portugal striker Goncalo Ramos and Mohammed Kudus from Ajax.
But the club are also interested in Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

Betfair odds
Manchester United – 3/1
Chelsea – 7/1
PSG – 9/1
Arsenal – 10/1
Manchester City – 14/1
The 24-year-old has flourished since arriving at Napoli from Lille in September 2020, scoring 49 goals and providing 13 assists in 87 appearances.
He’s top of the Serie A goal charts this season with Napoli on course to collect their first Italian league title since 1990.
The player has over two years remaining on his contract, which expires in June 2025 and Napoli value him at around £100million.
Chelsea are considered second favourites at 7/1 with Betfair.
The Blues look likely to continue their spending spree and overhaul this summer and Osimhen could fit the bill with so many new creative additions brought in in January.
Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal follow next at 9/1 and 10/1 respectively, ahead of outsiders Manchester City at 14/1.
