JUST IN: Manchester United are still weighing up the striker market, although a deal is not expected for Ollie Watkins

Manchester United are continuing to monitor the striker market as they consider their attacking options, but a transfer for Ollie Watkins does not appear to be on the cards at the moment.

The England international was previously considered by United during last summer’s transfer window, before the club eventually secured the signing of Benjamin Šeško. Despite their earlier interest in Watkins, the Red Devils are currently not looking to reopen talks or pursue a move for the Aston Villa forward.
