As a 'deal in principle agreed,' Manchester United could make four more signings after Frenkie de Jong
Five Manchester United players whose careers ten Hag can resurrect
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag wants to sign five players this summer, and Frenkie de Jong could be the first. According to reports, United have reached an agreement in principle to sign the Barcelona midfielder in a deal worth up to £70 million. Express Sport looks at four more players who could join De Jong after him.
Timber, Jurrien
Jurrien Timber wants to reunite with ex-Ajax manager Ten Hag, who can play at both centre-back and right-back. The 20-year-old Dutchman is the Dutch manager's top target. He is a newcomer to the team with huge potential, an ability to play in multiple positions and He has previous experience playing under Ten Hag, having made 43 appearances for Ajax last season.
Sangare, Ibrahima
United are set to sign De Jong, but they may still want a defensive midfielder, with PSV's Ibrahima Sangare a low-cost option. United are rumored to be interested in the Ivorian.
Sangare's PSV contract includes a £30 million release clause. According to Sky Sports, the 24-year-old has his heart set on a Premier League move and believes he will be in England's top flight next season, with Chelsea another club linked.
Arnaut Danjuma
Arnaut Danjuma, formerly of Bournemouth, is a Villarreal winger who has garnered a lot of attention. The 25-year-old Dutchman scored 16 goals and assisted four times in 34 games for the Spanish club, which advanced to the Champions League semi-finals.
Eriksen, Christian
While Ten Hag has Fernandes as a No. 10 and Van de Beek as a backup, a free transfer for Christian Eriksen would still be appealing given his talent. The Dane will only be available if he declines a longer-term contract with Brentford.
Eriksen, 30, could stay at Brentford after a successful six-month stint with the Londoners beginning in January. The attacking midfielder is far more likely to stay with the Bees if they avoid relegation from the Premier League relegation means the attacking midfielder is far more likely to stay with the Bees than he would've had they dropped into the Championship.
