A new midfielder has been on Man United's radar for some time and injury to Mason Mount will only make Erik ten Hag more likely to push the button.
If Erik ten Hag was in any way on the fence about signing a new midfielder this summer, then news of Mason Mount's injury might have made the decision for him.

Mount was expected to add energy and dynamism to United in that area, and while that may come with time, the balance is way off.
Ryan Gravenberch is the latest name to surface, with the Manchester Evening News reporting on Monday that a late move for the Dutchman is being considered. The 21-year-old is thought to be keen on a move, having started just three times for Bayern Munich last season after joining them from Ajax a year ago.
He, like Gravenberch, is thought to be keen on a move but while Bayern are resistant, Fiorentina have long accepted their star will be sold. His seems the easier deal to be done.
