Manchester United fans have given up on signing Frenkie de Jong but wouldn't mind seeing Marcel Sabitzer back at the club. Erik ten Hag wants to bolster his midfield ranks this summer and lessen the burden on the dynamic but ageing duo of Casemiro and Christien Eriksen.
The pair both arrived last summer and were the driving force behind United's dramatic improvement but the drop off in quality when either was unavailable was obvious.
Fred, Scott McTominay and Donny van de Beek have been unable to meet the manager's high standards and more quality is being sought out as a result.
United have made Mason Mount their top target but have been unsuccessful so far. Frustrations are growing with Chelsea in how they've handled negotiations and don't want to overspend on a player in the final year of his contract.
