Manchester United are in talks with a World Cup winner over a summer deal – and the move could be completed soon.
A whopping 17 players have been linked with exits at Old Trafford, as Erik ten Hag looks to overhaul his squad. The Red Devils look a shoo-in for a return to the Champions League next season but are reportedly keen on bringing in new talent across the pitch. There is clear need for a striker and new defenders – assuming Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof leaves – while the goalkeeping position remains one to upgrade one.
And with two of last summer's signings, Casemiro and Christian Eriksen forming a solid partnership in the centre of midfield, it seems as if Ten Hag has made it a priority to bring in a third star to complement the pairing.

The midfielder was a vital player in his native Argentina's World Cup win in December and is said to be of interest to Liverpool, too. Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano previously tweeted that Mac Allister was "100% guaranteed" to leave the Seagulls this summer, confirming United's interest.
