From the source

Manchester United’s recruitment work is already extending well beyond the next window, with fresh attention placed on Borussia Dortmund after a significant scouting mission at the Allianz Arena.

According to TeamTalk, United were among the clubs in attendance for Bayern Munich’s meeting with Dortmund, but their interest centred squarely on the visitors and a possible four-man shortlist.

The report states that United “sent scouts to assess up to four Dortmund players”, namely Serhou Guirassy, Jobe Bellingham, Felix Nmecha and Daniel Svensson. That is a notable spread of positions, centre-forward, midfield and left-back, and it suggests planning is taking place on multiple fronts rather than around one urgent deal.
