Ten Hag 'Draws Up' Four-Man Man Utd Transfer Shortlist
Dutch tactician Erik ten Hag has reportedly drawn up a list of four players he wants to sign for Manchester United amid the team's struggling run of form. The start of the 2023/24 campaign has been disastrous for the Red Devils, who have already suffered six defeats since the season kicked off.
Compounding the team's on-field struggles is the ongoing fallout between Ten Hag and Jadon Sancho, the concerns surrounding new goalkeeper Andre Onana's start in England, and injuries to key players. This has led to Ten Hag giving more game time to Jonny Evans and Harry Maguire at centre-back than he perhaps would have imagined, with Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane among the stars battling to stay fit. , the Dutch tactician is looking for potential solutions and has identified four defenders who could help the 20-time English champions.
It is claimed that Sporting CP defender Goncalo Inacio is being closely monitored, along with Nice's Jean-Clair Todibo, Benfica's Antonio Silva and Bayer Leverkusen's Edmond Tapsoba. While Maguire decided to remain at United in the recent window to fight for his place in the side, rumours suggest that Ten Hag is still open to offloading the England international in the future.
