Bengaluru, June 6: Manchester United are weighing up a move for Eintracht Frankfurt striker Sebastien Haller should Romelu Lukaku leave the club this summer, according to latest reports.
United are set for a major summer shake-up under Solskjaer, with numerous first-team members expected to leave Old Trafford in the summer and it could even see them let go star forward Lukaku.
The Belgian forward has seen his position captured by Rashford since Solskjaer's appointed and rumours have been circulating that he could move to Serie A next season, after potential interests from Inter Milan.
Inter Milan are interested in Lukaku and it will become clear over the coming weeks whether new manager Antonio Conte is provided with the finance to land the Belgian striker.
United, who would hold out for up to £80million for Lukaku, are unlikely to sign a striker this summer without offloading another.
But with Lukaku rumoured to be looking for an exit with such proposal, keeping that in mind, United are actively looking for a replacement and reportedly they have been impressed with Haller who has had been phenomenal for Bundesliga side alongside the now departed Luka Jovic – who joined Real Madrid this week.
United scouts have been checking on the striker for some time and rumour is that they could make a formal move in the coming weeks.
