'Will it come true?' - Manchester United fans react to Darwin Nunez transfer links

Manchester United are in need of reinforcements in the summer. The defensive midfield position has been a problem area since last season and appears to be top priority list for the club this transfer window - so who should they target next?

Cristiano Ronaldo is United's top scorer this season with 18, but even he hasn't been setting the world alight as the club's number nine.

And with Ronaldo now 37 years old, there are doubts that he should be spearheading a project that potential manager Erik ten Hag has said could take up to five years. It is also important to consider as well that the Portuguese forward's contract expires next summer.
