Manchester United are actively pursuing options in the transfer market, focusing on both incomings and outgoings.
After finishing 15th last season, United are desperate to have a strong summer to put themselves in a good position for the upcoming campaign.
Having completed the signing of Matheus Cunha and closing in on Bryan Mbeumo, United are exploring further deals.
One position the club is looking to strengthen is goalkeeper, particularly after Andre Onana suffered a hamstring injury during pre-season training.

United have been linked with Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez throughout the window, and more recently with Belgium goalkeeper Senne Lammens.
They have also been strongly linked to Botafogo’s John Victor, who is quickly emerging as a serious target.
Victor possesses several traits Ruben Amorim is seeking in a goalkeeper, he’s a strong shot-stopper and a commanding presence in the box.
According to GOAL, talks are currently ongoing with the Brazilian’s entourage, and United are expected to formalise an offer in the near future.
Victor has a release clause of £5.9 million, which United would need to pay in full to avoid entering negotiations with Botafogo.
However, another Premier League club has also shown interest in Victor, which could force United to make a swift decision to avoid missing out.

Although United have several options at goalkeeper, John Victor represents a sensible, low-cost, high-reward signing, who would be content competing with Andre Onana for the No.1 spot rather than replacing him outright.
United are hoping to finalise a deal sooner rather than later for whoever is brought in, with the aim of integrating the, into the squad during the pre-season tour of the USA.
Other positions are also being targeted, and the club will look to move quickly in the market to give Ruben Amorim the best possible platform for success.
