Man Utd hours away from failing to meet three objectives in summer window
Michael Carrick has addressed his midfield issues - but other problems remain at Man Utd
TL;DR
- Manchester United has spent £155 million on three new central midfielders: Youri Tielemans, Andrey Santos, and Carlos Baleba.
- Surplus players Joshua Zirkzee and Manuel Ugarte are likely to remain at the club due to failed loan moves and an injury, respectively.
- The club is expected to miss out on defensive reinforcements, particularly a left-back, as transfer targets like Lewis Hall, Alejandro Balde, and Jorge Salinas are unavailable or out of budget.
- Gary Neville has expressed concern over Manchester United's lack of defensive signings, stating the backline could be a weakness this season.
