To date, MU has only signed versatile forward Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5 million. MEN reports that Amorim had already identified the positions needing reinforcement to improve the squad. However, the slow pace of the transfer market has left the Portuguese manager unprepared and unable to plan for the upcoming season.

Bryan Mbeumo and Viktor Gyokeres are two targets for Manchester United. However, both have transfer fees exceeding £60 million. Mbeumo has agreed to join MU, while Gyokeres is undecided between the Red Devils and Arsenal.

One of Manchester United's current problems is the need to offload players who are no longer valuable before considering new signings. Many players cannot leave due to high salaries and poor form in the 2024/25 season. Several players, such as Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Antony, are being put up for sale to generate transfer funds for new signings. However, negotiations remain slow.

Furthermore, the failure to qualify for European competition next season has also diminished MU's appeal in the transfer market. The "Red Devils" finished the last Premier League season in 15th place.

Manchester United's upcoming US tour will include three matches against West Ham, Bournemouth, and Everton, all taking place in the latter half of July. After that, MU will have just over two weeks to prepare before the Premier League season begins. Amorim wants to finalize the squad before MU enters the pre-season to make it easier for new signings to adapt.
