Manchester City and Manchester United have both been at the centre of transfer speculation this month.
United are in the midst of a complete rebuild. Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata, Nemanja Matic and Edinson Cavani all left the club in the summer after their contracts came to an end, though new boss Erik ten Hag recruited well in his bid to replace those who left Old Trafford.
Experienced heads such as Casemiro and Christian Eriksen have entered the fold, whilst Antony, Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez have all joined to create a more penetrative United side. The mid-season loan signings of Wout Weghorst and Jack Butland have helped to offset the departures of Cristiano Ronaldo and Martin Dubravka.
