Manchester United are trying to get their January transfer window going after deflating start.
The Red Devils were infamously gazumped by arch-enemies Liverpool over Christmas and as fans witnessed their move Cody Gakpo be humiliating hijacked, only for it to emerge that United lacked the immediate funds to compete with the rivals' offer. With the Glazer family looking to sell the club in the first quarter of 2023, United chiefs are keeping the purse strings tight this month.
But that doesn't mean to say there there won't be any business done. Erik ten Hag has made it crystal clear that he wants to sign a forward before January 31, and while Atletico Madrid 's lofty loan demands for Joao Felix may have killed that potential deal, there're plenty more options elsewhere.
