Manchester United s transfer window so far

After a subpar season that saw the Red Devils go through three managers, the summer has brought Erik ten Hag from Ajax, and the Dutch manager has started making signings. Christian Eriksen is the only free transfer this summer, having been released from his Brentford contract. Ten Hag moved to his former club in the market almost immediately, signing for just under €60 million in a bid to improve United's leaky defense. Another Eredivisie player, Tyrell Malacia, was signed from Feyenoord for €15 million, and the star has impressed at left-back for the Red Devils in the preseason. Manchester United have openly chased Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong, but the transfer seems to have stalled due to the star's lack of interest. With the Red Devils playing in the Europa League this season, De Jong would be taking a step down from the Champions League if he moves. Regarding departures, the Red Devils have seen Juan Mata, Edinson Cavani, Nemanja Matic, Jesse Lingard, and Paul Pogba leave on free transfers. So far, only Andreas Pereira has been sold to Fulham, but more departures from Old Trafford are expected before the transfer window runs out.
