Bournemouth asking price forced Man Utd to drop King push

Manchester United pulled out of a deal for Josh King over Bournemouth's asking price.

United have since completed the £3m loan signing of Odion Ighalo from Shanghai Shenhua.

United turned their attention to Ighalo in their increasingly frantic search for a striker after Bournemouth wanted £40million for King.

United conceded defeat in their bid to land Bournemouth's King after their offer of around £20m on Thursday night was quickly rebuffed and described as 'a joke' by senior Bournemouth officials.

Bournemouth were determined not lose King, 28, and United faced having to break the bank to stand any chance of persuading the Cherries to part with the former former Old Trafford academy product.
