Erik ten Hag didn't have things all his own way in the transfer window, but the Dutchman will be content with the business Manchester United did manage to conclude over the summer.
The former Ajax chief encountered numerous setbacks, particularly in the early stages of the window, and was unable to acquire Frenkie de Jong, who was believed to be his primary transfer target. But Ten Hag compensated by spending significant sums on other players capable of improving United's team.
Two of Manchester United's biggest deals of the summer saw Ten Hag directly raid his former side. Antony and Lisandro Martinez were both eager to reunite with their former boss in the Premier League - but Ajax were not willing to give them up cheaply.
