Manchester United are already planning ahead as the January transfer window opens in one more month. They will certainly find a way to strengthen the squad and also the depth in the team. United will also aim to qualify for European competition next season.
Back to England. Adam Wharton who is in the radar of Man United for their midfield overhaul is reported that he prefers to go to Man City if there are offers between those clubs. Reports from various sources also said that Man City were keeping their scout to monitor Elliot Anderson which is ranked very highly by Pep Guardiola. Elliot is also one of the names that are listed by Man United in their transfer radar. The competition from City surely will make it harder for United.
Wharton also made a must meet condition that United have to qualify for Europe in order for him to listen to the offer presented by Man United. If the condition is not met, Wharton will immediately consider other offers available on the table. Get more transfer news for Manchester United at Price In UK
Manchester United also keep monitoring the condition of Fede Valverde at Real Madrid. The midfielder is rumored to be unhappy with the leadership of Xabi Alonso at Madrid. It is reported that Real Madrid will want a lot of money for this transfer to happen and Man United are still short from Madrid’s valuation. United believe that this transfer will make the same impact as Casemiro and Raphael Varane’s transfer to Old Trafford.

Manchester United are reportedly trying their best to get the Brazilian next big talent in Luis Eduardo. As reported by AS Chelsea are also in the pursuit for his signature. The battle to get Luis’ signature will be interesting as he is also being monitored by many big European clubs.
Marcus Rashford’s performance in Barcelona certainly brings up the conversation whether or not Barca will bring him in on a permanent deal or not. He has been performing really well in La Liga, but Barca’s financial condition will be the main factor. PSG are also interested in bringing Rashford in if Barcelona fail to do it or don’t meet the valuation asked by Manchester United.
But some reports said that Man United’s valuation will not be an issue if Robert Lewandowski’s contract is not renewed for next season. The transfer of Marcus Rashford will be a great boost for United’s finances because he is one of the high earners of the club.
Manchester United’s Ongoing Players Plan

AS Roma are reportedly trying to get Joshua Zirkzee in the January transfer window. They will present a loan approach with an obligation to buy if Roma qualify for the Champions League next season. Man United are rumored to be listening to an offer if there are at least £36 million on the table. It will be interesting to see his next move back to Italy if the deal happens.
On the other hand, Manchester United are still insisting to block any transfer move for Kobbie Mainoo. The youngster reportedly unhappy with the limited game time he has this season and was trying to get a loan move since last summer window.
Ruben Amorim said that Kobbie will be an integral part of his team in the future, but for now, he still needs to improve in some areas of his game. Amorim will try to give him as much game time as possible, but with Bruno Fernandes’ availability, it proved very hard for Mainoo to get game time unless Bruno is injured.
