Confirmed : Top 7 players Manchester United must sign this summer,as Ten hag submits list full list today .
Manchester United have a humongous
task to rebuild this summer. They
are, currently, a team that is far
from their arch-rivals. The past
couple of months have showcased
a lack of quality and depth in
the squad, resulting in crushing
defeats to Everton, Liverpool,
Arsenal, and Brighton.
According to Sky Sports, Ralf
Rangnick said after the humiliating
loss at Anfield:
“If you analyze the situation
, it is not difficult to analyze
. For me, it is clear there
will be six, seven, eight,
maybe 10 new players.”
That kind of overhaul is easier
said than done, with speculation
over the kind of budget Manchester
United's new coach, Erik ten Hag
, will be handed during his first
summer window.
The list of players who are certain
to be waving goodbye to the Theater
of Dreams reads - Paul Pogba, Jesse
Lingard, Juan Mata, Edinson
Cavani, Nemanja Matic, and Lee
Grant. Their contracts are
due to expire.
Apart from the ones mentioned
above, we can realistically consider
some others to be on their way out
as well. Aaron Wan-Bissaka,
Anthony Martial, Phil Jones, Eric
Bailly, and Dean Henderson
will be heading out the exit door
as well in search of more
minutes.
Since there will be a need for replacements
, let's take a quick look at seven
players who could bolster
Manchester United's squad for
the upcoming season.
#7 Christopher Nkunku -
RB Leipzig
Nkunku has had a phenomenal
season for the German side,
bagging 31 goals and 20 assists
across 48 appearances in
all competitions. The forward
is highly appreciated by Manchester
United's interim boss Ralf
Rangnick, who had previously
worked with him at RB Leipzig.
United are on the lookout for
a forward this summer and his
addition could highly strengthen
the squad.
#6 Aurelien Tchouameni -
Monaco
Manchester United were desperate
for a defensive midfielder this
season. Tchouameni, who has
had a strong season with Monaco,
could be a great addition to
solve the problems United
have suffered.
However, they could face stiff
competition from other European
clubs largely due to United missing
out on Champions League football.
#5 Frenkie De Jong -
Barcelona
Manchester United will definitely
be in the market for midfield
reinforcements this summer,
with the likes of Paul Pogba and
Nemanja Matic both leaving
the club at the end of the season.
The Red Devils have already
made contact with Barcelona,
who are looking to offload the
midfielder to replenish their summer
transfer budget. The Spanish
club also needs to solve their
financial problems, as per Spanish
journalist Gerard Romero.
But it is also reported that the
midfielder is upset amidst the
transfer reports, according to reliable
Spanish journalist Helena Condis
of COPE. Condis says the
Dutchman is desperate to stay
at Camp Nou. It is to be seen
whether Ten Hag does a miracle
and convinces his former
midfielder to join him at United.
#4 Declan Rice - West
Ham United
Midfield is one area where United
would surely like to strengthen
and Declan Rice's name has been
echoed far too often around
Old Trafford every transfer window.
Arguably the best in the Premier
League in central defensive midfield
position, he has played a significant
part in the Hammers' success
this season. His price tag could
be a major hurdle for United but
they could splash money around
for a prized talent like him.
#3 Darwin Nunez -
Benfica
The 22-year-old Uruguayan striker
has impressed in league and
European action for Benfica, scoring
34 goals across all competitions
this season. Manchester United
will be hopeful of roping in his
services. He could be an able
compatriot to the legend Cristiano
Ronaldo, who is nearing the
autumn of his career.
#2 Pau Torres - Villareal
Manchester United would definitely
like to strengthen their defense
, which has leaked far too many
goals this season. The Red Devils
could make a move for the
Villareal centre-back
.
Manchester United were monitoring
the 25-year-old last summer
before securing the €48 million
deal for Real Madrid centre-back,
Raphael Varane. But with the
France international missing a
significant number of games
through injury this season, the
club have settled on acquiring
another defender this summer.
#1 Antony - Ajax
Erik ten Hag's arrival at Manchester
United has accompanied rumors
suggesting that the 52-year-old
could decide to bring a few
Ajax players with him to Old Trafford.
One of the key names suggested
is Ajax winger Antony, who has
been highly successful this season
, netting 12 times and recording
10 assists. Ten Hag has confirmed
that there is nothing stopping
him from signing Antony. He
also recently told weTalk Ajax that:
