Manchestter United appear to have moved on from Ollie Watkins, at least for the time being, but there is fresh hope that the England striker could yet become available

Manchester United have been given a huge boost in their pursuit of Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins this summer, according to reports. The Red Devils have narrowed their striker search down to Watkins and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko as Ruben Amorim looks to complete his attacking overhaul.

Ruben Amorim would rather sign Ollie Watkins than Benjamin Sesko despite Manchester United making the latter their No.1 transfer target. The Red Devils are keen to recruit a new striker ahead of the new Premier League season and have been strongly linked to both players this summer.
