The manager hopes to strengthen the squad this summer, but the club have had a number of failed bids for players. An aging Old Trafford also requires an upgrade or complete replacement.

A Bloomberg report claimed the Glazers are open to selling a minority stake to United, but when approached by the Guardian on Wednesday night, the club declined to comment.
