“6 Potential Manchester United Transfers to Watch on Deadline Day”
As the transfer window draws to a close, Manchester United is gearing up for a busy deadline day. With several deals in the pipeline, the club is looking to further strengthen Erik ten Hag’s squad and manage some key departures. Here’s a breakdown of six deals that could be completed before the window shuts:
1. Manuel Ugarte
Manchester United has agreed on a deal with PSG for the transfer of Manuel Ugarte, valued at £42.3 million with an additional £8.5 million in potential add-ons. The 23-year-old holding midfielder has been a priority target for United throughout the summer. The deal is expected to be finalized today, and Ugarte could be eligible to play in United’s upcoming match against Liverpool if registered before the deadline.
2. Scott McTominay
Scott McTominay’s move to Napoli is another deal set to be finalized on deadline day. The Scottish international, who has been with United for 22 years, is expected to join the Serie A club for a £25 million fee. This transfer will help fund United’s acquisition of Ugarte and allow McTominay to seek regular playing time in Italy.
3. Jadon Sancho
Jadon Sancho’s future at Manchester United remains uncertain. The winger has not featured in Ten Hag’s plans this season and could be on his way out, with Juventus and Chelsea showing interest. United prefers a permanent transfer but might settle for a loan with an obligation to buy. Sancho’s departure could trigger a swap deal with Chelsea for Raheem Sterling.
4. Raheem Sterling
Raheem Sterling, currently at Chelsea, could be involved in a swap deal with Jadon Sancho. Chelsea is keen to offload Sterling, and United might see this as an opportunity to bring in a seasoned winger. The deal, however, is complex and could be one of the most significant deadline day sagas.
5. Sonny Aljofree
The 19-year-old center-back Sonny Aljofree could leave United on loan. Aljofree spent some time at Altrincham on a flexi-loan last season and could be set for another loan move to gain more experience.
6. Elyh Harrison
Elyh Harrison, an 18-year-old goalkeeper, is another candidate for a loan move. A temporary exit would allow him to gain valuable senior experience while continuing to train at Carrington with United’s first team.
With these deals in the works, Manchester United’s transfer window could end on a high note, reinforcing the squad while also addressing key departures.
