Manchester United Focused on Midfield Acquisition for January

Manchester United is making a midfield acquisition a top priority as they prepare for the upcoming January transfer window.

According to the Mirror, the club has allocated funds and compiled a list of six potential targets ahead of the winter transfer period.

Top Targets in Mind

At the forefront of United’s interest is Brighton’s midfielder Carlos Baleba, who was unable to complete a transfer to the club during the summer due to financial constraints.

Notable Candidates

The list also includes:

• Conor Gallagher from Atletico Madrid, previously with Chelsea.
• Young English talents:
  • Adam Wharton from Crystal Palace.
  • Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest.

Completing United’s shortlist is Chelsea’s promising midfielder Andrey Santos, who is considered a rising star despite facing challenges in securing consistent playing time this season.
