The upcoming summer transfer window is vital for Manchester United which means it should be extremely busy.
Erik ten Hag has done a great job in his first season to restore confidence and optimism to Old Trafford and finally end the trophy drought but the club is still a way away from where he wants it to be. United are 19 points behind leaders Arsenal and that is a lot of ground to make up if they are to launch a genuine title challenge, which will be the target for next season.
To get there it will take yet more smart - albeit expensive - work in the transfer market. Ten Hag has proven he is to be trusted in recruitment given the signings of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez have been a driving force behind the side's transformation and Antony, Marcel Sabitzer, Wout Weghorst and Tyrell Malacia have all contributed positively as well.
