Man Utd transfer rumours: Ten Hag to build around Ronaldo?

Wrapping up the Man Utd transfer news, rumours and gossip in the 2022 summer window. Ten Hag on De Jong: Starting tour with all players would've been best

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag admits he would have preferred to have gone into pre-season with a fully equipped squad that would have ideally included Frenkie de Jong.

Manchester United have agreed a deal worth up to £57m for Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez, who is set to sign a five-year contract at Old Trafford.

United will pay a guaranteed €57m (£48.5m) for the Argentina international defender, with an additional €10m (£8.5m) in add-ons agreed between the two clubs. The move will see Martinez link up again with former Ajax manager Erik Ten Hag, who signed him for the club in 2019, at Old Trafford.

The deal is still subject to both medical and visa requirements, with completion expected in the coming days, before he puts pen to paper on a five-year contract in Manchester, with the option of a further 12 months, which would take him beyond his 30th birthday.

Manchester United have completed the signing of Christian Eriksen on a three-year deal following a rigorous medical.

The 30-year-old has strengthened Erik ten Hag's midfield options at Old Trafford after opting against remaining at Brentford, where he enjoyed an impressive stint on loan last season.

Denmark international Eriksen will not join United's pre-season tour of Australia due to the long flight involved from the UK.

Manchester United remain comfortable in their position regarding a potential deal for Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong.

United have a "broad agreement" with Barcelona on the fee - believed to be €65m (£56m) plus performance-related add-ons.
