Everybody expected Manchester United to have a very busy transfer window this season, but surprisingly, it has not been the case so far. Last season, the 20 times English League champions had their worst campaign in nearly 50 years. They could not manage any silverware, and for the worse, they even finished 15th in the league.
After an awful 2024-25 season, fans were expecting the club to go through a complete transformation. From top to bottom, each and every player could have been replaced as some fans expected. But so far, there had been only two major signings in the form of Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford and Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Manchester United are looking forward to a swap deal for Ollie Watkins
After signing two major forwards, it looks like the Red Devils are still not done with buying forwards. They are presently linked with multiple top forwards, and it looks like their definitely going to bring another forward. Previously, they were linked with Nicolas Jackson, but after Chelsea valued him for a reported fee of £80 million, United have moved back from this deal.
Ollie Watkins had been an extremely impressive player for Aston Villa
They are also heavily rumoured to hijack the Benjamin Sesko deal from Newcastle United. Since their Swedish forward Alexander Isak is pushing a move to Liverpool, the Magpies are looking forward to a replacement. The Slovenian international Benjamin Sesko emerges as the potential replacement, but it looks like Manchester United may hijack the deal.
Ollie Watkins scored 17 goals in all competitions for Aston Villa last season
There is another name that has presently been linked with Manchester United, and that is the English International Ollie Watkins. The 29 year old had always been extremely impressive for Aston Villa, and he always scores in double figures every season. Watkins can definitely be an amazing signing for Manchester United.
