Welcome back guys! Today we’ll be taking a look at 5 players Man Utd should sign in the January transfer window. Manchester United have had an outstanding start to the season in the Premier League, currently sitting three points ahead of Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool at the top of the table. But there’s still area’s Solskjaer could do with reinforcement in and the January transfer window could give Man United that extra push towards the Premier League title. First let’s take a look at a midfield option, a player available immediately who could transition into the side by the end of the season is Manuel Locatelli. The former AC Milan youngster has been developing his game at Sassuolo and he’s become one of the best defensive midfielders in Serie A. Operating from the left of a double pivot, Locatelli is the side’s controller and he’s often the deepest of the midfielders. He makes Sassuolo tick with his quick one and two touch play out of the back, always happy to receive even when under pressure and with his back to goal. Moving onto right back, Manchester United only really have Aaron Wan-Bissaka as a first team option and considering he’s been played non-stop since signing for United, with the only outfielder to play more minutes than Wan-Bissaka in that period being Harry Maguire, it’d be good to be able to rotate him or even bring in a player to compete for a starting position. Whilst Max Aarons has been linked recently and is an excellent talent, he’s at a similar age to Wan-Bissaka and they would both develop into the same kind of attacking full back whilst one could halt the development of the other. Signing Aarons could also prevent the likes of Ethan Laird from breaking into the first team in the future. Who I’d like Man United to go for is Mazraoui. The Ajax right back is a very technical footballer and is more of an inverted full back. With experience playing all over the pitch for the Amsterdam club, he’s become a very rounded player. Unlike Aarons, Mazrouai would be a very different full back to Wan-Bissaka. He’s basically a central midfielder in that position with great technical ability and a fantastic passing range. This season Ajax have continued with their 4-2-1-3 under Erik ten Hag and their right hand side has looked the most dangerous with Mazrouai as an inverted wing back playing behind Antony, a left footed right winger. He generally takes up an inverted position which allows Antony ahead of him to play wide and create one v one’s with the opposition full back whilst Mazrouai makes excellent supporting underlaps to either take opponents with him or receive the ball. Moving up the pitch United are always in need of young, talented attackers and Michael Olise is definitely one to watch.The 19 year old is currently the top assister in the Championship this season and would be a shrewd acquisition to add depth to Manchester United’s squad. The Championship has proven to be a breeding ground for very talented players in recent years. The likes of Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham and Reece James, all who are key components of the current Chelsea squad shone in the Championship on loan. Whilst very talented attackers learnt their craft there, I’m talking about the likes of Maddison, Buendia, Eze and Jack Grealish. And Oli-say looks like the latest to emerge from the competition. He started the season from the right flank but has played all across the line and even in Reading’s double pivot. #ManUtd #MUFC #ManchesterUnited Who do you think Man United should sign in the January transfer window?
