Manchester United are planning to rival Bayern Munich for two of their transfer targets.
The German club’s only striker in their squad is 31-year-old Harry Kane.
They are looking to add depth to their forward line and have identified four talents to join Vincent Kompany’s squad.
They are the frontrunners to sign Lois Openda from RB Leipzig, while Liverpool are competing with them to sign Omar Marmoush from Eintracht Frankfurt.

United share an interest with Bayern Munich in Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko, according to Christian Falk.
Gyokeres will be a fan favourite at Old Trafford for some time after scoring a hat-trick against Manchester City last night.
The 26-year-old helped Ruben Amorim secure a 4-1 victory in his last home game as Sporting CP manager.
He is the joint-top scorer in the UEFA Champions League this season, with five goals in four games.
The Swede has also lit the Primeira Liga on fire, netting 16 times in 10 games.
Unsurprisingly, Gyokeres’ signing would not come cheap, as he is estimated to be worth around €70million by Transfermarkt.

Sesko has long been admired by scouts at Carrington, with United missing the opportunity to sign the Slovenian forward for just €2m back in 2018.
Like Gyokeres, Sesko has enjoyed success in front of goal in his domestic league and in Europe.
The 21-year-old has provided 10 goal contributions in 14 games in all competitions for RB Leipzig this season, including three goals in the Champions League.
With a woeful goalscoring record this term, United have only netted nine times in 10 Premier League games.
Despite Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee’s blockbuster signings in the last year, it is clear that the Red Devils need more firepower up front.
FC Bayern has the following strikers on the list, as Harry Kane (31) is the only in their squad:
Omar Marmoush (25/Eintracht Frankfurt). competitor: FC Liverpool
Viktor Gyökeres (26/Sporting Lissabon). competitor: Manchester United
Benjamin Sesko (21/RB Leipzig):…— Christian Falk (@cfbayern) November 6, 2024
