Manchester United

Summary

Generated by

Manchester United are in the middle of a significant squad overhaul as Michael Carrick prepares for his first full season in charge, with transfer activity dominating the club's pre-season picture. The most pressing business centres on the left-back position, where United have had a £60m bid for Newcastle's Lewis Hall approved by the Old Trafford hierarchy. Hall is keen to leave St James' Park following Eddie Howe's resignation and his own World Cup omission, giving United real confidence a deal can be done.

Going the other way, Joshua Zirkzee appears set to depart on loan. The Dutch striker has reportedly agreed personal terms with Juventus, and United are exploring a player-plus-cash arrangement that would bring Portuguese winger Francisco Conceicao to Old Trafford in return. It is a reshuffle that reflects Carrick's intent to reshape the attacking options available to him.

The mood around the club is broadly positive. United beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 in their most recent pre-season friendly, and defender Leny Yoro has publicly declared the squad is ready to challenge for the Premier League title. Those are bold words, but they come with some foundation: United secured Champions League football last season by finishing third, and Carrick has since been handed the job permanently. Marcus Rashford remains absent from pre-season as he completes his post-World Cup rest period, though his future at the club is also under scrutiny. The new Premier League season begins with a trip to Hull City on August 22.
