Who Will Manchester United Sign This Summer 2018?

It has been a big improvement this season at Manchester United but there is still a long way to go before picking up their first EPL title since Alex Ferguson’s retirement. It looks likely that the Red Devils will finish in second place but there is still a lot of ground to make up on neighbours Man City. If they are going to bridge the gap, they are going to need to break the bank once again to get the types of players they need to improve the first team. Below we look at the possible summer signings that Mourinho may bring to Old Trafford and with the major action associated with United in recent transfer windows it will be interesting to understand which players are viewed as being the most likely targets for Manchester United.

#1: Danny Rose

During last summer’s transfer window, Danny Rose spoke publicly about his desire to play back up North along with having his head turned by the huge increase in salary that Kyle Walker received when he signed for Manchester City last season. It was not warmly received by Pochettino who demands loyalty from his players so it is no surprise to see the defender as the second choice. Manchester United have been courting the left back for the last few seasons and most expect him to sign for the Red Devils during the transfer window.


#2: Antoine Griezmann

One player that will certainly improve the first team at Man U is Griezmann who has constantly been one of the top performers in La Liga. The player has a €100 million release clause in his contract so United are going to have to break their record fee if they are to land the attacker. They will not be the only team that is interested in his signature but it is essential that they get him if they are going to improve which is why they will pay as much as it costs to get their man.

#3: Paulo Dybala

The player that has been getting all the praise from the media and fans this season for his performance in Serie A for Juventus is Paulo Dybala. Many are labelling him the next Messi and Man U are in desperate need of some creativity. It has been reported that his club wants around 140 million pounds for the attacking midfield sensation.

#4: Arturo Vidal

Vidal is the type of player that United need if they are going to catch City. He has been one of the top performers in the German league now for the last couple of campaigns. With the imminent arrival of Leon Goretzka in the summer, Bayern may look to sell the 30-year-old while they can still get a good fee for him.

#5: Fabinho

If you’re a Man U fan you may have heard about Fabinho before as United were trying to buy the player during the summer of 2017. It looks likely that they will once again make an approach for the player who will be a great addition to the midfield. With the likes of Carrick and Fellaini to leave at the end of the campaign, he is an essential player to fill the void left behind. He is extremely versatile and can even play at right back which will please the manager.
