Manchester United remain intent on signing Sergio Ramos from Real Madrid but have not given up on Nicolas Otamendi at Valencia either.
While most are questioning where the next striker will come from following Robin Van Persie's exit, coach Louis van Gaal wants to ensure he has enough leaders and more aggression in his squad to take the club forward.
Ramos has indicated to United he wants to come to Old Trafford and van Gaal remains hopeful Ed Woodward can strike an agreement where David de Gea will go to Madrid in the same deal.
Manchester United remain intent on signing defender Sergio Ramos from Real Madrid
They have not given up on Nicolas Otamendi but Valencia insist they must match his £35.6m buyout clause
Woodward has also asked for Madrid's Costa Rica goalkeeper Keylor Navas but that element has been dismissed at this stage.
United though still have eyes on the combative Otamendi and Valencia are braced for a bid for their star defender.
Madrid also like the Argentine as a possible replacement for Ramos should he go but Otamendi is keen on a move that would team him with compatriot Marcos Rojo at United. Valencia insist he will not go for less than his buyout clause of £35.6million.
