Manchester United Football Club commonly referred to as Man United, or simply United is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Manchester United, after a slow start, enjoyed a positive transfer window in the end. Martin Dubravka and Antony joined on deadline day, following the likes of Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez, and Christian Eriksen to Old Trafford. However, Erik ten Hag’s rebuild is far from complete…

Manchester United made Malacia their first signing back in July, with the Netherlands international joining from Feyenoord after previously looking set to move to Lyon.
Eriksen and Martinez then followed, moving from Brentford and Ajax respectively.
After missing out on Frenkie de Jong, and cooling their interest in the Barcelona star, United then proceeded to raid Real Madrid for Casemiro – who moved in a £60million deal.
And, on deadline day, the Red Devils sealed deals for Antony and Dubravka – who have moved from Ajax and Newcastle respectively.

Manchester United News Update
THE hottest transfer saga of the summer has finally ended – Cristiano Ronaldo is staying put at Manchester United, at least until January.
The Portugal captain – who started from the bench in United’s clash vs Leicester on Deadline Day evening – had been linked with a move to a Champions League team, but boss Erik ten Hag has confirmed the striker will play a “big part” this season.
Meanwhile, United announced the £85.4m signing of Antony plus goalkeeper Martin Dubravka on Deadline Day. Both will be available to face Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.
Frenkie de Jong is staying at Barcelona, but that means United can make another play for him in January.
Erik ten Hag made it three wins in a row and earned another clean sheet on the road in Manchester United’s 1-0 win over Leicester.
The Red Devils are up to fifth and face league leaders Arsenal next at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Boss Ten Hag teased new signing Antony could be available to face the Gunners in his post-match interview.
He said: “We will have to see.
“He did today his first training and then we have two more team sessions and then we will have to see for Sunday.
“Of course, I am really excited, a really good signing. He will bring temperament, creativity, and fighting spirit and we need quality in numbers in the offensive department.
“That [Arsenal] is the real test for us, we are looking forward to it. We have to be good, we know that and it is a good test to see where we are.”
Ex-Man Utd youth player Danny Higginbotham spoke about why he wasn’t surprised to see Cristiano Ronaldo on the bench:
That’s probably a reason why we haven’t seen Ronaldo playing, and that’s no disrespect to Ronaldo. The first goal, I don’t think they score that if Ronaldo is on the pitch, the way that they’re pressing, the intensity, and the signings all make an impact as well. Yeah, you know when you talk about creating an identity – the reason they’ve won these last two games is the energy in the front four.
Erik ten Hag gives his thoughts
After back-to-back away wins for the first time since last September, Erik ten Hag gave his review of United’s performance tonight.
I am happy with the clean sheet. You can see when we have eleven on the pitch, who defend together and attack together. You can see what you can achieve. Join Also: Telegram & WhatsApp
