Manchester United have just two weeks to complete any of their planned January transfer business before the window shuts at the end of the month. So far, the focus at Old Trafford has been on departures with Donny van de Beek, Jadon Sancho and Hannibal Mejbri all leaving the club on loan.
United boss Erik ten Hag has admitted business is unlikely this month, unless the right deal presents itself. He said in December: “As a club, you have to look for improvements, so if you can find better and it’s realistic financially and with financial fair play, I think the club has to go with it. But realistically, in relation to the market, most of the time you don’t attract the best players in the winter. The top, top players will not leave their clubs in the winter. It’s players who are disappointed, injured or just not the right fit or whatever.”
