Manchester United have already been active in this summer transfer window and we’ve taken a look at where else they could look strengthen before the new season starts.
Mason Mount and Andre Onana are the main additions to Erik ten Hag’s squad this summer, but the Dutch boss might be keen to bring more players to Old Trafford ahead of next term.

Striker
Manchester United were certainly missing an out an out goalscorer last term as Wout Weghorst failed provide the goods, not scoring a single goal in 17 Premier League appearances last term.
The lack of form from the Dutch striker meant that Marcus Rashford has to play several games down the middle, where he is evidently a lot less productive than in his natural position out wide.
There has been several forwards linked with a move to United this summer, namely; Victor Osimhen and Rasmus Hojlund who are both sought after by many of Europe’s top sides.
Hojlund looks like the man at the top of United’s wish list, and reports are suggesting that the deal could be confirmed ahead of their first league game against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Centre-back
Manchester United suffered several defensive injury woes last term, and the drop off between Lautaro Martinez and Raphael Varane is significant between the other central defenders at the club.
Ten Hag turned to Harry Maguire when one of the regular duo was injured last term, but after the recent news that he has been stripped of captaincy, this could be a sign of his departure from the club.
Although the centre back pairing of Martinez and Varane is strong, Ten Hag might be keen to add strength in depth, especially with them having Champions League football to contend with next term.
