The Premier League 2024 transfer window has been nothing short of exhilarating, with clubs making strategic moves to bolster their squads for the upcoming season. Here are some of the top transfers concerning Manchester United that have made headlines:
Joshua Zirkzee
New Red Devils’ shareholders INEOS made a significant statement of intent by securing the services of Joshua Zirkzee from the Italian side Bologna for a fee of only £ 36.5 million. The 23-year-old Dutch forward is viewed to be capable of many aspects that many forwards lack these days hence this makes him a very interesting signing.
Leny Yoro
Man Utd have also managed to beat Spanish giants Real Madrid in securing the services of 18-year-old Lille defender Leny Yoro in a deal that could be worth up to £58.9m. The youngster is considered a huge prospect for the next generation as he possesses every attribute needed to develop into a top-class center-back as stated by the new sporting director Dan Ashworth.
Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite and Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt are still highly regarded by the club. Depending on available funds and squad space as the transfer window continues, they remain potential options.
Manchester United have also steered their interest in PSG defensive midfielder Ugarte who is said to have good qualities for a premier league-level club such as Manchester United. He is a player that top football journalist Fabrizio Romano said should be looked at closely as the move is seen to be moving positively.
