Man United handed chance to sign 'perfect' Manuel Ugarte partner as shock transfer emerges
Manchester United are putting a lot of work into their transfer business ahead of the summer but what they can do rests solely on the outcome of their Europa League final with Tottenham Hotspur.
Ruben Amorim's men go into next week's showdown in Bilbao knowing they will be able to significantly improve the playing squad if they have Champions League football to offer.
Much has been made of what United need to do when the window opens. Limited funds mean the business has to be spot on and the early signs point towards a huge window for the club.
However, United must sign players that fit into Amorim's fluid 3-4-2-1 system and that is pivotal. So with that in mind, MEN Sport takes a look at two latest transfer stories that have done the rounds in the last 24 hours.
On the subject of players fitting into Amorim's system, United are keeping an eye on the situation between Callum Hudson-Odoi and Nottingham Forest.
Sky Sports' Dharmesh Sheth has claimed that United are one of the teams keen on the winger, who has revived his career at the City Ground. Forest are in talks over a new contract with his current deal up at the end of next season.
Roma, Napoli and another Premier League team are also said to be interested.
MEN Sport's Josh Holland says: "United's current system under Amorim has already seen Antony and Marcus Rashford axed. The 3-4-2-1 doesn't supplement wingers so a move for Hudson-Odoi makes little sense.
"However, his lightning pace and decent wide play does make him an attractive option. It's hard to believe that he's only 24 after seeming to be around for years..
"Alejandro Garnacho has played in one of the attacking midfielder slots this season, so it can work. But the Argentine hasn't hit the levels
