Manchester United are in need of reinforcements across several positions despite Erik ten Hag spending £600 million during his tenure.
The club has already seen several high-profile departures in attack, with Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Antony all leaving.
These exits have opened the door for new wingers to arrive, as United look to reshape their frontline under Ruben Amorim.
There was an opportunity to bring in a winger in January, with Mathys Tel looking likely, but he ultimately chose to join Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur.

However according to Samuel Luckhurst on MEN, United are ‘still open’ to idea of signing Sporting CP winger Geovany Quenda.
That is despite securing the arrival of Patrick Dorgu from Lecce.
The club held talks with influential agent Jorge Mendes in November, as his Gestifute agency now represents the 17-year-old’s interests.
United have been tracking Quenda since he made his Sporting debut in August.
A separate source claims Mendes has now acquired half of his image rights.
Both Quenda and Dorgu are left-footed, and Dorgu played in the wide-right role on his debut against Leicester City.
The same position Quenda occupied under Amorim at Sporting.
However, Dorgu is expected to play primarily on the left in the long term.
Amorim wants more attack-minded wingers to create chances for the striker.
United have already loaned out Tyrell Malacia to PSV Eindhoven, with an option to buy.
Meanwhile Luke Shaw’s future remains uncertain.
Shaw has not started a match for United since February 18 last year and has played as many times for England as he has for United in that period.
A hamstring injury has kept him sidelined for over two months.

The club may not tolerate another injury-hit season from the 30-year-old, who is under contract until 2027.
Reports in Portugal last week suggested United had tried to sign Geovany Quenda on transfer deadline day.
However, club sources dismissed these claims.
The teenager has started 18 of Sporting’s 21 league matches this season and all eight of their Champions League fixtures.
He has switched from the right wing to the left under new Sporting boss Tiago Aguilar, scoring two goals and providing seven assists.
Quenda joined Sporting from Benfica’s academy at the age of 12 and was first included in the first-team squad by Amorim as a 16-year-old.
He has been compared to Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka due to his technical ability, versatility, and direct playing style.
Mendes has a strong history with United.
He brought Cristiano Ronaldo, David de Gea, and Bruno Fernandes to the club.
