The uncertainty surrounding a potential takeover at Manchester United has created doubts about the amount of money available to Erik ten Hag to spend in the summer.

Frustrations regarding Anthony Martial’s availability and Wout Weghorst’s lack of goals since joining the club make it unsurprising that Ten Hag is keen on acquiring an elite-level forward.
United have shown interest in Harry Kane as their preferred center-forward, but they are also monitoring Napoli’s Victor Osimhen. While approaches for Jude Bellingham and Frenkie de Jong have been approved, it seems unlikely that either midfielder will join this summer.
Ten Hag is now considering more attainable options for midfield upgrades, but the report does not specify potential players.
The Red Devils are two wins away from securing a top-four spot, with three matches remaining in the season. The club understand that their ability to secure Champions League qualification and the potential takeover will significantly impact their transfer plans.
