Manchester United told to complete two signings to fulfil Erik ten Hag's Champions League aim

Manchester United have been urged to sign Goncalo Ramos and Antoine Griezmann in order to finish in the top four this season, as former player Paul Parker claimed Erik ten Hag would be "lucky" to have the France international in his squad.

Following the sudden departure of Cristiano Ronaldo last month, United are looking to sign a forward in the January transfer window to replace the veteran. A whole host of names have been linked with the club, with Ten Hag admiring Portugal international Ramos.

The 21-year-old striker replaced Ronaldo in the national side's starting XI for their final two games in Qatar, with the Benfica forward scoring the tournament's first and only hat-trick so far. United will be wary of an inflated transfer fee off the back of his World Cup performances, with Ten Hag having already spent £225million over the summer - the Dutchman might not be able to stretch the budget as far as he would like in the upcoming window.
