Man Utd transfer news LIVE – New signing leaked, World Cup winner wanted

Manchester United are set for an extremely busy final few days of the summer transfer window. Erik ten Hag could make as many as three signings before Friday’s 11pm deadline, while there is also likely to be a number of exits.

United have made four signings so far this summer, spending around £180million. That number is likely to soon be five as Ten Hag completes a deal for a back-up goalkeeper.

The Dutch boss also wants to sign a left-back and has been linked with a long list of targets since news of Luke Shaw’s injury emerged. A loan deal appears most likely as Shaw and Tyrell Malacia work to regain full fitness.

A central midfielder is also on the agenda, with Mason Mount set for a spell on the sidelines with an injury of his own. Dean Henderson looks set to be on his way but he may not be the only player leaving Old Trafford this week.

Mourinho deal

Manchester United could strike a late deal with Jose Mourinho’s club Roma.

Italian outlet GianlucaDiMarzio.com claims Roma star Leonardo Spinazzola is a target for the Red Devils.

The Italian has featured in both of his team’s matches so far this season.

Spinazzola would be experienced cover at left-back for Ten Hag.

World Cup winner wanted

Manchester United are interested in signing Lyon left-back Nicolas Tagliafico.

Fabrizio Romano says Erik ten Hag has added the World Cup winner to his list of targets.

Tagliafico started for Argentina in their final win over France in Qatar last December.

Ten Hag knows the player well having managed him for four years at Ajax.

New signing leaked

Former United midfielder Fred has leaked Altay Bayindir’s move to the club.

Fred joined Fenerbahce earlier this month and has wished the goalkeeper well at Old Trafford even though United are yet to confirm his arrival.

The Brazilian said: “I wished Altay good luck when he left. He is going to join a great team.

“Altay will be very happy at Manchester United.”
