"Manchester United are reportedly ready to break their transfer record to sign one of Elliot Anderson, Carlos Baleba, or Adam Wharton, and that will likely mean offloading Manuel Ugarte. The Red Devils will be disappointed with the lack of impact from Ugarte so far at Old Trafford, with the Uruguay international barely featuring after falling out of favour with Ruben Amorim this season."
"Players like Ugarte and the ageing Casemiro make that a real weak link for MUFC at the moment, but if they could shift those players and bring in a top class proven Premier League player that would be great progress. Anderson has perhaps been linked most strongly after really catching the eye with Nottingham Forest and England, but Baleba and Wharton are also two fine young talents."
"Amorim didn't have much of a chance to change the squad he inherited from Erik ten Hag straight away, bringing in only Patrick Dorgu in last January's transfer window. In the summer, however, he was able to oversee a few more significant changes as Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko and Senne Lammens all joined. So far, though, out of Dorgu, Cunha, Mbeumo, Sesko, and Lammens, it's debatable if the new additions have really been that successful."
Manchester United are prepared to break their transfer record to sign a top-class midfielder such as Elliot Anderson, Carlos Baleba, or Adam Wharton. The club is likely to offload Manuel Ugarte to fund that investment after the Uruguay international barely featured following a fall out of favour with Ruben Amorim this season. Players like Ugarte and ageing Casemiro are seen as a weak link that limits performance. Shifting those players and bringing in a proven Premier League-calibre midfielder is considered necessary to improve results. Recent signings under Amorim included Patrick Dorgu, Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko, and Senne Lammens, with mixed success so far.
