Manchester United Eye More Transfers Following First Summer Signing
Manchester United kicked off their summer transfer activity with the acquisition of striker Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna. Erik ten Hag is now focused on strengthening other areas of his squad. Ineos, managing their first transfer window, aims to support Ten Hag with key additions. Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt and Lille center-back Leny Yoro are high on the list. The club is also targeting midfield reinforcement with Paris Saint-Germain’s Manuel Ugarte being a potential candidate.
Another key area for potential signings is the wing, with United showing interest in Girona’s Viktor Tsygankov. Spanish newspaper AS reports that United plans to activate Tsygankov’s €30 million (£25 million) release clause. Competition is fierce, as Arsenal and Aston Villa also pursue the 26-year-old Ukrainian international. Although United lacks Champions League football for the upcoming season, interest from multiple Premier League clubs suggests an intense battle for Tsygankov’s signature.
The presence of Omar Berrada, a former City Football Group executive, might facilitate the potential signing of Tsygankov. Berrada’s experience with Girona could provide valuable insights as United considers adding the winger to their roster. Despite Antony and Jadon Sancho’s current presence on the squad, bolstering options on the right flank remains under discussion. The next few weeks promise significant developments as Manchester United continues to strengthen its team.
