United are understood to be ready to delve into the transfer market to sign a striker this summer.

And high on Louis van Gaal's agenda are Palermo hitman Dybala and Inter Milan forward Icardi.

Dybala is also a target for Arsenal while Chelsea are interested in Icardi - with both players valued around the £30million mark.

Paulo Dybala and Mauro Icardi are targets for Manchester United

Radamel Falcao's failings at Old Trafford since joining on loan from Monaco have forced United to look at other options.

Robin van Persie's dip in form has also concerned Van Gaal and convinced him a new striker is necessary.

Van Gaal is preparing to spend over £150m on five new players this summer - including a new goalscorer.
