Manchester United still has work to do on the transfer market, despite the addition of Benjamin Sesko to their ranks and their expenditure after £ 200 million before the summer take
There is less than a week until the Premier League return and Ruben Amorim will soon learn whether his side has been advanced in the summer. The Portuguese have a new front line at his disposal after a deal for Benjamin Sesko was confirmed to add to recent additions Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha.
Sesko was paraded with fans prior to the last friendly friendship of the club against Fiorentina in Old Trafford. United did not succeed in using a remarkable display, but it meant a milestone on the way to the start of the season.
But there is still work to do. Rasmus Hojlund was in the team for the game, but did not play in the midst of speculation around his future, while the Red Devils still hope to find clubs for Tyrell Malacia, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Alejandro Garnacho.
And although Chiefs Old Trafford may hope that the money will be supplemented, there are areas of the team that still have to be improved. Amorim would certainly not say no to having a high -quality midfielder that is added to his ranks.
That said, Mirror Football looks at the latest news and transfer rumors around Old Trafford.
Hojlund U-turn
Rasmus Hojlund has admitted the defeat and is willing to consider an exit of Manchester United after the signing of Benjamin Sesko has pushed him through the pecking order. The Dane previously stated his intention to fight for his place and rejected the idea of moving to RB Leipzig, but United has remained open before his departure.
The striker is now more receptive to the idea of leaving Old Trafford after AC Milan came to the table, Talksport reports. The Italians are talking to United through a loan with OPion to buy with the Red Devils set for a considerable loss after spent more than £ 70 million two years ago.
New Sancho -answer
Jadon Sancho is said to be on the shortlist of Atletico Madrid for the last weeks of the transfer window. According to Fichajes, Diego Simeone wants to add to his team wide and the Manchester United Flop is one of that important.
Sancho was ready to join Juventus, but that movement has made little progress, while Borussia Dortmund has returned as a possible competition for his signature. The international of England could still be found with options to consider Simeone claimed Sancho 'as a potential game-changer on the flanks' with his immediate style that suited an inconvenient philosophy.
United speaks with agents
Manchester United was contact with agents of Brighton star Carlos Baleba, by reports during the weekend. United remains the intention to promote a deal through the player, as they did with Benjamin Sesko, before they make an agreement with the seagulls.
Contract and salary remain in discussion, while the contact remains at Brighton, although not advanced. Baleba would be interested in the move with United wants to try to get a deal about the line, with personal conditions that are not expected to be a problem.
If their efforts do not pay in the coming weeks, expect a return next summer.
