Manchester United are finally up and running in the transfer window after unveiling Mason Mount as their first signing of the summer.

United's pool of existing midfielders is aging and Mount, 24, will add youth and quality to an area of the pitch where they were sometimes overrun in the big games last season.

Attention now turns to United's remaining priorities in the transfer market. We know Erik ten Hag wants a new striker after seeing his current options (aside from Marcus Rashford) struggle for goals last season, and a new goalkeeper is also on the agenda amid the confusion surrounding David de Gea's future.

Will United manage to land both of their remaining priorities? Or will a compromise have to be made ahead of potentially revisiting one of the situations in 12 months' time?

The Manchester Evening News' expert United team, including chief reporter Samuel Luckhurst, will be on top of all of the goings-on at United for the remainder of the transfer window and beyond, and you can now receive our updates on WhatsApp by joining our free community through the link below.
