🚨 There could even be 6/7 incomings depending on outgoings. [Jacobs Ben, United Stand] ✍️ So the Milan loss turned out to be a blessing after all

🚨 #ManUtd are CRANKING up plans to sign a LB after deciding that was the most pressing issue to be fixed in Michael Carrick’s squad ahead of the new season. Left-back is now seen as the area of the squad most in need of investment, although a deal for Lewis Hall appears all but DEAD. United had identified Hall as their top target for the position, but the 21-year-old is set to stay at Newcastle. [Tyrion Marshal , MEN] ✍️ Do you believe we will sign a new LB? If yes, WHO?

🗣 Steven Railston: "They ARE going to make signing, they’re absolutely going to make signings because they have to - they’re not going to let Michael Carrick down, I don’t believe they will. I’m confident a 3rd midfielder comes in." "The money’s there. It’s definitely there, and the message when we we spoke to people at the club this summer has been: look, we’re not going to splurge, we’re not going to, really go above our budget, and we have to be disciplined. But when the figures were released in May, the latest financial figures, and I will stress this, this is on paper, this is theoretically, but I worked out theoretically the club could have spent 300M in this transfer window. They’d made free pay payments to the revolving credit facility, which is essentially a credit card, which gave them a lot of scope to spend. And now look, we need to remain disciplined. We take a long-term view, and if they spent 300M that would have undone all the work of the last two years with the redundancies, cost cutting etc. But there is money to spend and they need to spend it because if they don’t it’s they’re just going to let Michael Carrick down.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​"

🗣️ laurie whitwell on Benjamin Sesko’s recovery from injury: "I’m told he’s now on the grass with teammates for a couple of sessions. Saturday [vs AC Milan] comes too soon for him. […] Hull is the expectation or hope that he can start getting involved with match days."

🗣 Laurie Whitwell on what Manchester United’s priority position currently is in the transfer market and Lewis Hall: "I think they’re onto left-back now really. Why haven’t they made more moves? I think he probably have behind the scenes. The prices being quoted or not being quoted for their targets is an issue like Lewis Hall, a prime candidate in that role, Newcastle are saying he’s not for sale. United have tried to figure out what that might require to get him. At the moment, I don’t think anything is moving in that direction. Are United taking a breather to see if Newcastle are looking at replacements? then getting towards the end of the window and thinking a deal can be struck."

🗣️ laurie whitwell on Camavinga and Manchester United: "He’s a player that’s been looked at and been offered. He’s a player under consideration and fits the bill. The money that would be required there is beyond the likes of Lewis Hall. Money is such a big factor here."
