Man United spent in the region of £200m in the summer, and in 2026, big money will be spent again on improving Ruben Amorim’s squad. A new midfielder and forward are wanted, with two of their leading targets being in the Premier League.

“They would need to spend something like £170million on those two players to turn them into a team who can compete for silverware and at the top level. Personally, I can’t see that happening, but they are interested in signing both of them and if it can be done in January, then perhaps they will. There will be other teams interested too, so it wouldn’t be easy by any stretch of the imagination, but I think they’re both players they need.”

Anderson and Semenyo would help their efforts, although that £170m could be spent on addressing multiple areas of Amorim’s squad, including their defence.
