Man wane: United don't expect any reinforcements in the winter window, aiming at the summer window and streamlining the squad

According to the Manchester Evening News, Manchester United do not expect any reinforcements in the winter window, but this year's summer window has been formed.

According to club insiders, the likelihood of United strengthening their squad this month is "low", with Mann reported earlier this week that any more deals are expected to be low.

Tuanzebe is waiting for a visa to complete the loan-out deal to Napoli, while Mengi has already taken it to Birmingham.

United have been open to strengthening the squad this month but have been adamant that there is unlikely to be any summer window signings in the winter window.

Longnick has advised United on their signing strategy before officially becoming a consultant to the club on 1 July this year. Club sources reveal that at this time of year, they will draw up a final target list.

One midfielder is United's priority this year, with at least one more attacking player to add. United are hoping for more activity in this year's transfer market as they want to streamline the squad. At least nine of United's current 29-man squad want to leave the squad, and the contracts of Pogba, Jesse Lingard, Cavani and Mata will also expire in June.
