Manchester United are coming off a huge win over Manchester City on Sunday. The Red Devils extended their undefeated streak to 10 games in all competitions, and they are getting hotter at the right time. With this kind of upside, the upcoming transfer window might be a key period for the Old Trafford side.
The Red Devils are undoubtedly on the right path. However, they could still strengthen some areas of the pitch. Here are four names that could boost the team heading into the 2020-21 season.
Jadon Sancho
The Borussia Dortmund winger seems to be the player everyone loves ahead of the upcoming transfer window. The 19-year-old England international is one of the most electric wingers in the world, and very few teams could afford him since the Bundesliga giants are reportedly looking to receive a nine-figure transfer fee. However, The Red Devils are one of them. With Sancho looking to return to England ahead of the 2020-21 season, this is the time for Ed Woodward and company to be aggressive in his pursuit. He’s a special talent that could transform any team with his arrival.
Dayot Upamecano
RB Leipzig centre-back has been a popular name on the rumour mill during the past few months, most notably due to his impressive performances with the Bundesliga outfit. However, there hasn’t been any indication of him wanting to extend his contract past June 2021. With that in mind, Leipzig would have to part ways with him during this upcoming summer, regardless if they win the Bundesliga title or not. The 21-year-old centre-back seems ready to embrace the next chapter of his career, and all signs indicate it won’t be on German soil.
Milan Skriniar
The second centre-back to appear in our list, Skriniar might part ways with Inter Milan in the coming months. After all, he could sign what might be the biggest contract of his life. The Slovakia international, 25, has become one of the best defenders in the Serie A and he has been touted with a Premier League switch, considering both Manchester United and Manchester City have been linked with an £80m move for his services. He could provide to almost any defence in the world. Plus, his versatility is a big plus. Skriniar can operate both as a centre-back and as a defensive midfielder with equal excellence.
Moussa Dembele
The Lyon striker has been a popular for transfer rumours ever since he was playing for Celtic in the Scottish Premier League. However, the Frenchman is currently enjoying and, at 23 years old, he might not last too much playing in the Ligue 1. He has 16 goals in 26 Ligue 1 appearances for Olympique Lyonnais. Manchester United have been long linked with a move for his services. Could this be the year the striker finally makes the jump to the English Premier League?
