Mathues Cunha signs, double striker deal done - Man United's dream squad with three new signings
Ruben Amorim is now just hours away from embarking on his first summer transfer window as Manchester United head coach.
The window will initially open on Sunday before briefly closing again on Tuesday, June 10. The window is opening earlier than usual due to an exceptional registration period relating to the FIFA Club World Cup taking place this summer.
