Manchester United have emerged as the bookmakers' favourites to sign Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane and Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho during the summer transfer window.
Sancho has been widely linked with a switch to Old Trafford throughout the season, and recent reports have suggested that United have already agreed personal terms with the attacker.
Meanwhile, Kane has admitted that he could be open to a move away from Tottenham in the future, although financial implications arising from the coronavirus pandemic may hinder United's attempts to sign the England captain.
Nevertheless, the bookies have slashed the odds on the pair joining the ranks at Old Trafford, with Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom telling the Evening Standard: "Manchester United have been heavily backed to sign not just Jadon Sancho but also Harry Kane, who's odds to move up North have plummeted from 100/1 last month to just 6/4 today.
"Jadon Sancho has recently expressed an interest to return to England and punters have been backing United to be the club to sign him since the market opened earlier this year, when they were 13/5.
"This week reports have suggested that United have agreed personal terms with him and they have since gone odds on at 11/10 to sign the England ace.
"Premier League rivals Chelsea are currently the second favourites to sign Sancho at 16/5, while European giants Real Madrid look to be going toe to toe with United over Kane, Los Blancos are 13/2 to be the strikers next club."
Sancho and Kane have registered a combined total of 34 goals across all competitions during the 2019-20 campaign.
