Manchester United will consider alternative options for the attacking midfield position this summer amid competition from Tottenham Hotspur for the signature of Bryan Mbeumo. United are still considered favourites to sign the French playmaker but the appointment of Thomas Frank as Spurs boss makes a move to North London more appealing for the forward.
It remains to be seen what will happen next with Mbeumo but United are adamant they will not overpay for the 25-year-old and have no wish to entertain protracted talks for his signature. That could lead United to look at alternatives, with several options available to Ruben Amorim this summer.
Here is a look at eight of the other options available to United as they look to sign a second attacking midfielder after they completed a deal for Matheus Cunha.

2. Antoine Semenyo
United are also admirers of Bournemouth star Semenyo, though it has been suggested he could cost a similar amount as Mbeumo if he were to move this summer. | Getty Images
3. Tyler Dibling
United are huge admirers of Dibling after an impressive season in the Premier League. He is not short of interest and there is extra appeal because he could play as either a wing-back or attacking midfielder. | Getty Images
4. Eberechi Eze
Eze is another option for United this summer and could be allowed to leave Crystal Palace if an appropriate offer comes in. They would likely use the price paid for Cunha as justification for his value. | Getty Images
