This transfer window has been forgettable by the standards of Manchester United. Most of their targets have rejected them.
Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha are the two notable signings United made this summer. However, one can argue that the Red Devils might have overpaid for Mbeumo.
For United, getting the right players in at the right time is more important, especially after the season they experienced last year.
Finishing 15th in the Premier League table is unacceptable for Manchester United. Look at what happened at Tottenham Hotspur.
The North London side finished in 17th place in the table. However, they were able to win the Europa League by beating Manchester United in the final.
Still, Daniel Levi decided to sack Ange Postecoglou and bring in Thomas Frank.
On the other hand, Manchester United decided to back Ruben Amorim, who is demanding new players to rebuild the Red Devils from the rock bottom they hit last season.
With Marcus Rashford leaving on loan to Barcelona and the likes of Jadon Sancho, Antony, and Alejandro Garnacho on their way out, Amorim needs attacking players.
That is why he has set his sights on a player Arsenal want to sign. The Gunners are having an amazing transfer window.
They have brought in the likes of Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, Christian Norgaard, Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke, and Cristhian Mosquera.
Most teams would finish their business by these signings and focus on outgoings. However, Mikel Arteta is determined to win trophies.
That is why they are looking to sign Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace. However, according to CaughtOffside, Manchester United are also monitoring the situation of Eze.
The Red Devils even contacted his representatives for a possible transfer. United are ready to trigger his £68 million release clause.
The next few weeks will surely be crucial to understanding where Eberechi Eze plays his football next season, at Old Trafford or at the Emirates.
