Man Utd has a headache with the midfield, aiming for two promising young talents
After recruiting Manuel Ugarte, Man Utd still do not feel satisfied with the strength of the midfield.
The Red Devils are actively looking for new faces to add quality and depth to this area. The two names most mentioned at the moment are Crystal Palace's Adam Wharton and Middlesbrough's Hayden Hackney.
Man Utd's midfield still has many concerns
Despite the addition of Manuel Ugarte, Manchester United’s midfield still has many problems to solve. Casemiro is showing signs of decline, Eriksen is not used regularly, while Kobbie Mainoo is too young to shoulder the responsibility.
Adam Wharton - top target
Adam Wharton is one of the most promising young midfielders in English football. After making a strong impression at Crystal Palace, Wharton was called up to the England squad for EURO 2024. However, recruiting Wharton will not be easy because Crystal Palace is asking a very high price and many other big teams are also pursuing this player.
Hayden Hackney - the sensible choice
Hayden Hackney is another young talent in English football. Being managed by Manchester United legend Michael Carrick will be a big advantage for the Red Devils in this deal. Middlesbrough may be willing to sell Hackney for a reasonable price.
Challenges ahead
Strengthening the midfield is an urgent task for Manchester United. However, the Red Devils will face many difficulties in recruiting top targets. In addition, integrating new players into the squad is also a big challenge.
