Man Utd are currently looking to make three more new signings as the transfer window heats up, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
The Red Devils have made two signings so far this summer with Netherlands international Joshua Zirkzee arriving from Bologna, while Lenny Yoro has joined from French club Lille.
that Man Utd have made a double bid for Bayern Munich duo Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui, which was rejected by the Bundesliga outfit.
And Romano has confirmed a centre-back, a right-back and a defensive midfielder are the three areas are looking to strengthen.
Romano wrote in his Caught Offside column: Man United already wanted to bring in one more centre-back in any event, and this remains the plan. Bayern want €50m guaranteed for Matthijs de Ligt, Man United insist on using add-ons, but talks continue. De Ligt is waiting for Man United, so it s quite a clear position.
In other areas, I d still keep an eye out for a new midfielder and on Mazraoui, who s also waiting for United.
Erik ten Hag kept his job under new co-owners Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS when it looked like he could be sacked after finishing eighth in the Premier League.
Speaking about his relationship with the new co-owners, : They know and they re so experienced in different groups, in different sport, arts and in business. And then they know when you are not together, you don t achieve the success you want to.
And we are highly ambitious, so we need to be unified and in that unity we have to fight together because we have to be the example for our players and for the team.

What we ve seen is a lot of changes from Manchester United in various approaches. And one of them is recruitment. It seems to be more aggressive, more proactive, but also more in keeping with the profile of player that can actually execute your vision on the pitch.
So you have to be there aligned and that we want to be proactive and we want to attract players who can execute our game model. And so yeah, from profiling we get the right players and that s a daily process. It s a continued process as well in the window, but also in between the windows. But yeah, that is an area that has to grow.
