Despite the January transfer window closing, Manchester United might still add to their squad. Free agent signings are possible throughout the season, pending squad space. With potential room for new additions, here are four free agents United could consider if they face challenges and need to explore limited options.
Manchester United might make another signing before the season's end, even though the January transfer window has closed. Manager Erik ten Hag can still add to his squad throughout the season if he explores options in the free agent market. Free agents can be signed throughout the season, but they can only be registered if a club has a space left in its registered squad.
With United potentially having some space in their squad, here are four free agents that United could consider if they face difficulties and need to look at the limited options available. While United fans hope for players like Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko, if they want to bring in a striker before the season ends, former Premier League legend Diego Costa might be their best bet. After leaving Wolves less than a year after signing in August 2023, Costa spent two years playing in Brazil but is now without a club. The 36-year-old could provide much-needed experience to United's attack, having scored 56 goals in the English top flight. Another prominent name available in the free agent market is Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain superstar Sergio Ramos. Ramos has been heavily linked with a surprising move to Mexican club Rayados de Monterrey, but has reportedly been considered by United on several occasions throughout his illustrious career. However, United will need to act quickly if they are interested in bringing the 38-year-old to Old Trafford, as, besides Rayados de Monterrey, Brazilian club Santos has reportedly offered the defender a one-year contract with a salary of €4 million. With Luke Shaw suffering another injury setback, manager Erik ten Hag might feel he's short on options at left-back, especially after sending Malacia on loan to PSV Eindhoven. With this in mind, ten Hag could be willing to bring Williams back to the club to get a player already familiar with the team, who wouldn't need time to adjust if called upon. The 24-year-old struggled to find regular game time at both Norwich City and Ipswich Town during his loan spells with those clubs, and now finds himself without a club. At some point in his future, it would almost certainly take very little to convince him to return to Old Trafford, even if it was just on a short-term basis.
