Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez, and Christian Eriksen are the three players whom Manchester United manager John Murtough has acquired for Erik ten Hag during this summer's transfer window.
According to sources, John Murtough, the manager of Manchester United, is finalizing Adrien Rabiot's contract as he seeks to sign the Juventus star. Despite continuing to pursue Barcelona's Frenkie de Jong, the Red Devils hope to add the France international as their fourth acquisition of the transfer window. And Celtic's Josip Juranovic is being hailed as a potential new right-back candidate.
De Jong is a Barcelona player who Manchester United would want to have.
However, Murtough and Erik ten Hag are prepared to look elsewhere to make sure they won't be shorthanded during the Premier League season because Chelsea is also in the running for the Netherlands international.
It has been revealed that United are pursuing Rabiot during the previous 48 hours.
Given that they just acquired players like Denis Zakaria, Manuel Locatelli, and Paul Pogba, Juventus is willing to let the France international go.
In order to complete this transaction, Murtough is allegedly "finalizing a contract" for Rabiot, according to the report.

Along with Pogba and Cristiano Ronaldo, Rabiot will be the third player from Juventus to join the club in the last ten years.
And he isn't the only player United is interested in as they attempt to support Ten Hag's departure.
Despite the multiple difficulties associated with De Jong, the Red Devils are not giving up.
De Jong desires to remain in Barcelona because, ever since he was a young child, he has fantasized about donning their red and blue colors.
Chelsea, who also have the benefit of Champions League football, are also interested in the 25-year-old.
The Netherlands' national team needs that, which United cannot give them after last season's sixth-place result in the Premier League standings.

Additionally, the newspaper claims that the Red Devils have "expressed an interest" in Celtic right-back Juranovic as they look to bolster that position.
Aaron Wan-relationship Bissaka's with United is willing to end just three years after the club spent £50 million to get him.
They are aware that Diogo Dalot is insufficient if they want to contend with teams like Liverpool and Manchester City for the Premier League championship.
Only time will tell if United is successful in acquiring deals for Rabiot, De Jong, and Juranovic.
But time is running short, and the Red Devils desperately need further signings, especially following their 2-1 loss to Brighton last weekend.
Many have been asking for the Glazers to leave United as a result of the gloomy atmosphere there.

And Michael Knighton, who nearly bought the team in 1989 for just £10 million, has admitted he's eager to get rid of the Americans.
Knighton said in an interview with Man Utd The Religion, "We are a club in trouble, and we all know why.
"We have a management team that is clueless about the sport of football and is, to put it bluntly, incompetent.
"Everyone is aware that this football club needs new ownership, and that is my goal and my objective.
"I am making good progress, keeping in touch with the public, and I have good financial and pledge support.

"The offer document is currently under construction. Keep in mind that the bid is hostile, which essentially implies that the club isn't actually up for sale.
"But my goal is to make these owners a credible, strong, and profitable offer that will signal that their time is up and they have run out of options.
"And to be honest, this dictatorship has worn out its welcome among fans everywhere.
"When we rapidly observed the performance against Brighton, the thrilling feeling of a new season that we all experience and that balloon of excitement that is there were both swiftly burst.
"While we have this current ownership, the club is in trouble and will stay in crisis."
