Manchester United prepares for its return to Premier League action while exploring potential transfer opportunities before the January window closes. The club has seen a quiet month in the market so far, with no new arrivals at Old Trafford yet. Time grows short for any squad reinforcements ahead of the second half of the season.
Michael Carrick, serving as interim head coach, has impressed with wins in his opening two matches against Manchester City and Arsenal. United faces Fulham at Old Trafford on Sunday, aiming for a strong result in its final game before the deadline.
Interest in Club Brugge Midfielder Aleksandar Stankovic
Manchester United shows keen interest in Club Brugge’s Aleksandar Stankovic as the transfer window enters its final stages. Scouts from United have attended matches to evaluate the 20-year-old midfielder’s performances. Tottenham Hotspur also monitors the player, creating competition for his signature.
Stankovic left Inter Milan last summer, but the Italian club holds an option to repurchase him in the offseason. Current estimates place his value at around £20 million (€23 million). While United’s pursuit remains at an early stage, further developments could emerge soon.
Scouting Sassuolo Defender Tarik Muharemovic
United has actively tracked Sassuolo’s 22-year-old defender Tarik Muharemovic throughout the January window. Representatives from the club observed him during Sassuolo’s 3-1 Serie A victory over Pisa on Saturday, where he played the full 90 minutes. The team moved up to ninth in the Italian top flight with the win.
Initial assessments of Muharemovic’s displays have been positive, suggesting United views him as a potential addition to strengthen the backline.
