Manchester United bosses Glazer family promised interim manager Ronnick that they would support him in January and would give him some transfer funds.
In the summer transfer window, Manchester United spent 130 million pounds to buy people, but did not achieve good results, the British "Times" said that in January Lonnick will receive a transfer budget to help him continue to strengthen the team.
The focus of Lonnick's reinforcement will be a new back-up player. However, due to the problems in the backline, Manchester United is also likely to continue to bring in defenders.
In the winter transfer window in January, United have already reached an agreement with Napoli in Serie A to transfer Tuanzebi, who was originally loaned to Aston Villa, to Italy for a loan fee worth a total of £1 million.
The Daily Mail revealed that Napoli will first pay Manchester United a loan fee of 500,000 pounds, and if the team can enter the top four of Serie A this season and win the Champions League place, it will pay another 333,000 pounds in prize money, in addition, according to the number of appearances of Tuanzebi, Manchester United may also receive 165,000 pounds.
Tuanzebi, 24, will undergo a medical examination at Napoli and will soon officially complete the loan. Previously, United had already leased another academy centre-back, 19-year-old Tedden Mengi, so there are only five centre-backs left in the team, namely Maguire, Varane, Lindelof, Eric Bai and Phil Jones.
Among them, Bai is not satisfied with too little playing time and may seek a transfer, Jones is also a potential outgoing player, and Maguire and Varane are both close to 30 years old, injuries are starting to increase, and the state may be affected, so Manchester United may need to continue to bring in new and young defenders as a reserve for the future.
Dan-Axel Zagadou, a 22-year-old Dortmund player, was added to United's list of visits.
Zagadu's contract with Dortmund has reached the final six months, and Manchester United can directly approach him, initials the contract, and joins on a free transfer this summer. Germany's "Fussball Transfers" reported that Lonnick, who is familiar with German football, is very eager to sign the former French under-21 national youth player.
Manchester United's defensive line this season, although the introduction of the highly anticipated French superstar Varane, is still full of loopholes, if it is not the goal god De Gea to play a heroic, I am afraid that after half a trip, the Premier League has conceded more than 30 goals!
Manchester United have conceded 27 goals at the moment, ranking in the middle of the Premier League defensive rankings, but if it were not for De Gea's high pick-up, the number of goals conceded would probably be around 35. According to the data, De Gea has defused 7.5 must-scores in 19 league rounds, ranking first among Premier League goalkeepers. He saved nearly one more goal than second-placed Wolves goalkeeper José Sa (6.6 goals), far behind the other goalkeepers, and third-placed Tottenham goalkeeper Lowry, who scored just 1.6 goals!
It can be seen that Manchester United's centre-back line, despite the total transfer fee of 200 million pounds, still needs to be strengthened. Zagadou is from the Paris Saint-Germain youth academy, with a height of 196cm, good use of his left foot, known as France's "new Umtiti". This season, he has recovered from a knee injury and made 13 appearances for Dortmund, and the Hornets also want to renew his contract, and Zagadou may be more inclined to renew his contract if the terms of his contract offer are ideal. However, Zagadu is currently stranded in Dubai for treatment because he tested positive for COVID-19.
