Manchester United needed a good transfer window this summer to provide the springboard required to surge back up the Premier League table after a historically poor campaign.
The Red Devils landed 15th in 2024–25, seven places lower than their previous worst finish in the post-1992 era. United lost more matches (18) than they won (11) for the first time in 35 years, and averaged just 1.16 goals per game in the league.
