EPL: Before the summer transfer deadline, Man United might sign four players.

Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Raphael Varane are all injured ahead of Manchester United’s domestic trip to North London to take o Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal on Sunday.

 

Erik ten Hag’s men has started the season slowly and has sealed six lucky points at Old Trafford against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Nottingham Forest respectively.

But the Red Devils lost their first away game of the 2023-24 season at Tottenham.

Manchester United’s midfield remains a key area that Erik ten Hag still needs to address despite the hefty fee spent on the signing of England midfielder and former Chelsea star, Mason Mount.

Erik ten Hag was desperate to sign the Englishman after he announced publicly that he won’t extend his stay at Stamford Bridge by June, 2024 if he had stayed at West London.

 

 

After lengthy negotiations, Manchester United and Chelsea finally reached an agreement that would see the Red Devils pay £55m for the 24-year-old plus a further £5m as add-ons.

Just two games into the new campaign and Mason Mount has already picked up an injury after a disastrous performance against both Wolverhampton Wanderers and Tottenham Hotspur.

Casemiro appears to be out of steam from last season’s heroics and is in desperate need of a break but Erik ten Hag doesn’t seem to entrust Scott Mctominay with the role of being Casemiro’s deputy.

Erik ten Hag and Manchester United needs their midfield woes solved before the closure of the 2023 summer transfer window, which brings us to the main central message of this article.

Below are 4 players that could join Manchester United before the Premier League summer transfer deadline.
