T20 WORLD CUP 2024 Full Schedule 
Who are the Manchester United Midfielder Options?
Manchester United are in need of some midfield reinforcements after losing 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur in the second week of the Premier League season 2023/24. The Red Devils have been linked with several players who could improve their midfield options and provide more balance and creativity. Here are some of the names that have been mentioned in the media as potential targets for Erik Ten Hag’s side.
Sofyan Amrabat: The Moroccan international impressed at the World Cup and has been one of the best defensive midfielders in Serie A for Fiorentina. He has a good relationship with Ten Hag, who coached him at FC Utrecht, and could be available for around £30 million.
Ryan Gravenberch: The Dutch youngster was a star at Ajax under Ten Hag but has struggled to get regular game time at Bayern Munich since his move last summer. He is a versatile and dynamic midfielder who can play different roles and has a lot of potential. United could try to lure him away from the Bundesliga champions with the promise of more minutes.
Marco Verratti: The Italian maestro is one of the best midfielders in the world and has been a key player for PSG and Italy for many years. He is adept at dictating the tempo, breaking up play, and creating chances with his vision and passing. He is reportedly admired by Pep Guardiola, who is also looking for a midfielder, but United could try to hijack any move and bring him to Old Trafford.
Amadou Onana: The Senegalese youngster has been a revelation for Everton since joining from Hamburg in 2022. He is a powerful and energetic midfielder who can cover a lot of ground and contribute to both defense and attack. He has been compared to N’Golo Kante and has attracted interest from several clubs, including United, who have decided to focus on him instead of his teammate Ruben Neves.
Leon Goretzka: The German international is another Bayern Munich midfielder who could be on the move this summer. He is out of contract next year and has not agreed to a new deal yet. He is a box-to-box midfielder who can score goals, provide assists and win tackles. He has been linked with United before and could be a bargain signing if he does not renew with Bayern.
Aurelien Tchouameni: The French youngster has been one of the standout performers for Monaco in Ligue 1 and has earned his first senior call-up for Les Bleus. He is a strong and athletic midfielder who can play as a holding or box-to-box player. He has been praised by his former coach Niko Kovac, who said he has “everything” to become a top player. He could be an alternative to Verratti or Goretzka if they are too expensive or unavailable, but right now, he has been with Real Madrid since 2022.
These are some of the midfielders that Manchester United could target before the transfer window closes. They will need to act fast and decisively if they want to strengthen their squad and challenge for trophies this season.
