Manchester United kick off their Premier League campaign THIS WEEK - and their squad has been transformed under Ruben Amorim. The Red Devils can boast a totally new front line following a lucrative summer transfer window.



Both Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo put pen to paper on moves from Wolves and Brentford earlier this year. The pair have been followed by striker Benjamin Sesko, who completed a big-money switch from German side RB Leipzig.



The Red Devils might not be totally finished there either. A new midfielder is potentially on their shortlist before next month’s deadline amid links with Brighton’s Carlos Baleba.



Away from incomings, United also need to focus on sales. Marcus Rashford has already departed and could be followed out of the door by Antony, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho and more.

With that being said, take a look at all of the latest transfer news and rumours from Old Trafford…

United set Baleba deadline

Man United have been told to get a move on in their bid to sign Brighton’s Baleba - or risk Real Madrid hijacking a switch. Speaking to talkSPORT, Troy Deeney said: “I think United have to get Baleba this window, or they don’t get him.



“If he has another good season, I do think other teams with Real Madrid and the like will come in and go ‘Bosh, we’ll have him’.

“I think if Man United want him…if I’m Ruben Amorim I’m kind of bullish on that. I’d be saying ‘get this deal done because then I can get you into Europe’. If they can sign him, he can move them up 10 spaces [in the Premier League].”

Rashford facing Barcelona nightmare

Barcelona chief Joan Laporta has admitted that Marcus Rashford might NOT be registered in time for the new season following his loan switch to Catalonia. “We’re working to make it happen," he said.

“With Marc’s decision, we have the option of registering Joan Garcia, and we’re working on the rest. This week we’ll have news, hopefully good news, to see if we can register them before La Liga starts. And if we can’t, we have time.”



Barcelona have until the end of August to sort the issue out - albeit Rashford could miss the start of the new La Liga campaign.

Lopez speaks out

Sticking with Barcelona, reported United target Fermin Lopez has said he has no intention of leaving the club any time soon. He said: "I want to stay here. It’s my dream and I will stay, I’m happy to help the team. Many things have been said.

"But I am going to continue defending these colours and working as hard as anyone else, so that the Catalans are calm.”
