According to ESPN, Manchester United plans to strengthen its wing-back options next summer while continuing to seek to introduce a midfielder.

Manchester United is evaluating how to strengthen the midfield. Elliott Anderson, Walton, and Baleba are all potential candidates, but Manchester United is also evaluating Wolves' Gomez, Trindade, Stuttgart's Stiller and Atletico Madrid's Gallagher. Manchester United hopes to bring in a wing-back and a midfielder next summer.

According to sources, Manchester United's recruitment plan for next season will revolve around the introduction of at least one top midfielder, but it is generally believed that Amorim also needs to add more depth at the wing-back position, so the club has already inquired about the situation of some potential targets.

Manchester United is expected to clear out a number of high-paid players over the next six months, including Rashford and Sancho, while Amorim aims to return to European competition next season.

According to ESPN, Manchester United is cautious about the upcoming January transfer window and prefers to postpone most transfer operations until next summer.

However, sources said that Manchester United has not ruled out any possibility at present, especially since there is still more than a month before the window opens, and the plan may change before January 1.
