Premier league giants Manchester united are already lining up a long term replacement for their summer signing Edinson Cavani who arrived at Old Trafford on a free transfer.

The Uruguayan's impact at the club has been lauded as he has not only got the goals but he has also proved to be a decent mentor to their young strikers.

It is understood that the Manchester based side will be in the market for a back up right back, a central defensive midfielder and a new striker.

Sky in Germany can now confirm united have intensified their search for a new goalscorer by contacting the entourage of Eintracht Frankfurt striker Andre Silva.

The former AC Milan and Sevilla striker could prove to be the ideal solution to someone who bags goals for fun as the talisman has already found the back of the net 18 times in 20 games this season.

United will however have to part with €34m for the 25 year old Portuguese international who will not be short of suitors when the transfer window opens.
