Manchester United have experienced a quiet January transfer window so far, with outgoings prioritised ahead of incomings given ongoing negotiations surrounding Anthony Martial, Jesse Lingard and Donny van de Beek.
The Red Devils have needed reinforcements in central midfield since the summer, but Ralf Rangnick appears willing to press on with his current options despite links with Denis Zakaria and Amadou Haidara.
However, recent reports suggest that Newcastle United are on the verge of signing Bruno Guimaraes from Lyon for just £35m. A medical was rumoured to be scheduled before his parent club denied such reports.
