Much of the focus around United’s transfer plans for the summer is on the acquisition of a new midfielder, however. United were reportedly already planning to sign a new central midfielder before Casemiro announced in January that he was leaving at the end of the season.
The Red Devils, back in the Champions League places under interim boss Michael Carrick, are said to be planning to sign two midfielders. Elliot Anderson, Adam Wharton, and Carlos Baleba have been heavily linked with moves to Old Trafford, but a move to bolster the frontline with Thiago also cannot be ruled out.
