Just as important as who comes in for Manchester United this summer will be who departs. Erik ten Hag will have to sell if he is to see his budget increase to a level that would allow him to do the kind of business he envisages.
United have a striker at the top of their list for the summer window but whoever that ends up being will take out a significant chunk of the budget.
If either of the top targets, in Harry Kane or Victor Osimhen, sign then it will be edging close to a nine-figure fee. There is also a desire to add a younger midfielder to the squad, with a right-back and a goalkeeper also potentially on the agenda.
A central defender could be required as well, depending on those departures. ALSO READ: United must help Ten Hag strengthen three positions A repeat of last year, when United spent £225million while bringing in only around £25million, won't be on the cards.
