Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano has outlined three further signings Manchester United could still complete in the current summer window.
As expected, Man Utd have been very busy in this summer’s transfer market, with Youri Tielemans, Andrey Santos and Karl Darlow standing out as their most notable arrivals.
However, talk around additional new signings has been fairly quiet over the last couple of weeks.
Even so, the Red Devils are still looking to strengthen further, with widespread reports indicating they want to recruit a third new midfielder after already bringing in Tielemans and Santos.
Michael Carrick’s side are also said to be targeting a new left-back to provide cover for Luke Shaw, while Romano believes a new striker could also arrive if the right circumstances develop.
“Michael Carrick said today that we can do something special this season, which shows the ambition inside Manchester United,” Romano said on his YouTube channel.
“On transfers, he made it clear the squad is very good and well balanced, but it can still improve. He said there are one or two positions the club are working on.
“We already know about the search for a left-back and a third midfielder, while something could also happen in attack if the right opportunity appears.
“I still expect Manchester United to do more business before the window closes.”
Romano also responded to Carrick’s latest remarks about Marcus Rashford after his return to Man Utd.
“Carrick also spoke very positively about Marcus Rashford,” Romano added.
“He said Rashford arrived in a very good mood, can give the team something different and something special, and that he knows the player very well.
“I am told those positive messages have also been consistent in private, so Carrick is more than happy to continue with Marcus Rashford.”
Carrick has also spoken about Kobbie Mainoo after the midfielder did not play a single minute for England at the World Cup.
In spite of that, Carrick insisted the tournament was not a wasted experience for the central midfielder.
“I spoke to him all the way through the World Cup, not loads, but little bits,” Carrick said.
“It’s challenging. From the outside we all see the glitz, the glamour and all the positive sides of football.
“But players are human beings. We all have our ups and downs. It’s important we support each other.
“It was a good experience for Kobbie. It’s a World Cup and that is a big step.
“He’s still such a young man and he’s achieved so much, so quickly. To be at the stage he’s at is an achievement.”
