After a summer of change and transformation at Manchester United 12 months ago, this summer is all about building on the foundations that have already been laid.
United enjoyed a successful maiden campaign under manager Erik ten Hag, securing a top four finish and ending their six-year wait for a trophy. It means the club will have grand ambitions of kicking-on next term, both domestically and in Europe.
To achieve both of those objectives, however, United need to strengthen a handful of key areas within their squad between now and the summer transfer window slamming shut at 11pm on Friday, September 1. Ten Hag has identified the positions that need bolstering and he is now looking to get his transfer business wrapped up as quickly as possible.
