Man Utd transfers in
United have attempted to shore up their defence with the signing of Alex Telles from Porto, who will slot in at full-back.
Apart from that, there’s no other defensive reinforcements on the list while former PSG striker Edinson Cavani arrived on a free transfer late on Deadline Day.
Donny van de Beek provides grit and creativity in midfield, while Amad Traore will link up with the side in January after signing a pre-agreement.
