The January transfer window may be going under the radar because of the World Cup, but the mid-season trade opportunity is fast approaching nonetheless.
Manchester United are among many clubs considering transfer business in the New Year, with the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo leaving them short of options up front. United have already been linked with Atletico Madrid star Joao Felix and PSV Eindhoven’s Cody Gakpo as potential replacements.
Erik ten Hag is only half a season into his United stay and, although the club signed five players in the summer, there is plenty more work still to be done. That could well include transfers, with some deadwood to let go of alongside possible arrivals.
