As far as I know we are after a cheap back up striker for the bench. What strikers are available that would be a cheap backup but also solid

i think our interest with Haaland was more of us having the opportunity to get a generational talent than us looking for a back up. Asides from Haaland we've come close to getting Mandzukic King and Ighalo and all these are cheap backup strikers that appear willing to sit on the benchI wouldn't consider the Haaland interest as looking for a cheap striker for the bench. More like looking for a cheap striker that fits Ole's attacking scheme at the position better than Martial. French 22 year old striker Odsonne Edouard for 20-25m would provide Haaland's skill set with considerably more athleticism at the position.
I hope I'm wrong but I'm of the belief we will be looking for a top no. 9 once Martial let's Ollie down as the main man up top. Again, hope I'm wrong, but I can see that happening.
My hope is that in the meantime Greenwood is ready to take over the no 9 role when this transpires.
If it were me I would try to think like Fergie and plan two steps ahead, sign Kane now with Greenwood to learn from a proper no. 9 and eventually replace him. Use Martial, Rashford and Sancho for the wings. That would be perfect, a big ask, but we are a big arse club and need to behave like one.
You think Kane goes for 200 mill when Spurs are trying to pay for a new stadium whilst it’s feckin empty? Hmmm I doubt it.Yeah 300 million on two players, we should put in an offer for Messi so Sancho can learn from the best on the RW as well.

Plus the initial cash paid up front for Sancho will be considerably less than 100 mill.
Just sayin, we are a big team and we should have some big balls to make the most of the situation.
Activate Memphis Depay's buyback clause, 25m?
Danny Ings, considering Southampton are going through some financial issues.
No thanksMichy Batshuayi anyone?
PSG just bought Icardi so thats gone
nice little deal for Inter.if you call £60m cheap sure.
Luka Jovic from Real Madrid on loan?
I second this. Guys got a nose for goal.I'd pick up Danny ings
Ighalo is the cheap backup bench option isn't he?! At least until Jan.
Celtic are apparently still quoting over 30Mil.Odsonne Eduoard. Before the pandemic, he was being quoted for 30m. I think a cheeky bid of 18m could be tempting.
