Manchester United's struggles in the transfer window have become evident in recent days.
The farcical on-off chase of former West Ham and Stoke forward Marko Arnautovic has co-incided with a host of new names being linked with a move to Old Trafford. Whilst three players - Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen and Tyrell Malacia - have been purchased so far, Red Devils' manager Erik ten Hag is in dire need of further reinforcements.
The club's chief transfer target all summer has been Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong but complications remain over that deal, including a stand-off between the Spanish giants and the Dutchman over unpaid wages.
