The full picture
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are competing for the same strikers in the 2027 transfer window, according to Spurs Web. Both clubs have several names in common on their shortlists, including Club Brugge striker Nicolo Tresoldi, valued at £42m, and Dinamo Zagreb striker Dion Beljo.
Manchester United are prioritizing adding a centre-forward to their squad in the winter transfer window, with Benjamin Sesko facing a prolonged period on the sidelines, as reported by TEAMtalk via Spurs Web. United's shortlist includes Nicolo Tresoldi, Igor Matanovic, and Dion Beljo.
The competition for these strikers may be intense, as Manchester United are willing to put up a fight after their strategy of opting for cheaper midfield options backfired, according to Spurs Web. United's hierarchy may be keen to avoid making the same mistake in January, having lost out on Mateus Fernandes to Tottenham.

Source context
Tottenham Hotspur and Man United are prioritising their striker searches in 2027 and have several of the same names on their shortlists. Spurs are undoubtedly on the up under Roberto De Zerbi, with things starting to click for the Lilywhites after a rough start to the season. While only two points separate Tottenham and Man Utd in the table, the two clubs appear to be on opposite trajectories, with Spurs getting better with each performance while the Red Devils appear to be getting worse under Michael Carrick. However, both clubs have their eye on many of the same players and may be set for a major transfer tussle in January. TEAMtalk have now claimed that, like Spurs, United are prioritising adding a centre-forward to their squad in the winter, with Benjamin Sesko facing a prolonged period on the sidelines.
