Man United might add a defensive midfielder to their ranks before deadline day and have been linked with Everton's Amadou Onana.
Manchester United got their campaign off to a winning start, just about, but the joy of the three points was tempered by the poor performance.
New signings are dependent on sales and with Harry Maguire's proposed move to West Ham falling through and Dean Henderson also staying, they haven't managed to raise much capital other than selling Fred for an initial £8million. Still, the way in which Wolves cut through United and how Casemiro was left exposed does suggest they could do with signing one before deadline day.
“He is different from other midfield players. It is in this perspective that I wanted to test it. He did what I expected of him. He brought physicality but also his quality in small spaces, in keeping possession of the ball. He will be able to develop with our team." Frank Lampard upon signing Onana: "Amadou is a player we were really keen to bring to Everton. He has many great qualities to help strengthen our midfield and, at just 20, has massive potential to get better. I spoke to him about why Everton was the right club for him and we're all looking forward to him showing what he can bring to the team."
"When you’re young, you can adapt your game and we want Ama to be able to adapt and look at his role in midfield. I think it’s more of a European thing but they’re very method bound and sometimes from a very young age they say: ‘You’re that player.'
