Former Manchester United forward Andy Cole believes it will take 'a lot of money and a lot of persuading' for his old club to secure their top striker target this summer.
The Red Devils are in the market for a centre forward with the out-of-contract Zlatan Ibrahmovic - who could still be offered a 12-month extension - sidelined long-term with a cruciate knee ligament injury and club-record goalscorer Wayne Rooney's future increasingly likely to be away from Old Trafford.
'It is very difficult to see who is out there United could buy,' said Cole, who scored 121 goals in 275 matches for the club.
