The summer transfer window officially opens its doors today (Friday), meaning clubs in England are now free to trade as they wish up until September 1.
For Manchester United, this summer promises to be the most important window they have faced as a club in recent years, as new manager Erik ten Hag takes on the challenge of trying to put them back on the road towards success. It has already been confirmed that Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Juan Mata will all leave the club when their contracts expire later this month.
Their departures — as well as those of Lee Grant, Nemanja Matic and Edinson Cavani — have freed up space in the squad, so United will be looking to try and get some incoming deals wrapped up as quickly as possible. Pre-season training is scheduled to start on June 27 and the squad will fly out to Thailand in early-July for their pre-season tour.
