This summer, Manchester United's operations at the front line were not very good: in June, the team's goal at that time was to sell Hoylen, who performed poorly last season, but in order to make the books better, the Red Devils' asking price is quite high, which also discouraged the teams interested in Danish strikers.

In this case, Manchester United's focus of strengthening was still on the wing. Mbemo pulled from June to July and finally landed in Old Trafford. Cunha also joined early. The tactical strength in Amorin's 3421 system was strengthened, so Manchester United began to clean up the portal. At present, Rashford has left the team, and former former people like Anthony, Sancho, Marasia and Garnacho are basically unavoidable to be killed by the team.

However, at the center position, Manchester United's operations are still a little cautious. This summer, there are actually many forwards who have had scandals with Manchester United, and they are all big names. They had a scandal with Ekitic and touched Isaac again. Because of Amorin's relationship, Portuguese sports forward Jekelais also played well with Manchester United for a while. The most eye-catching thing is that Manchester United and Chelsea plan to exchange players and exchange Garnacho for Jackson, but the Blues are quite confident in Jackson's market conditions, and the transfer was finally left incomplete.

However, with the forwards of other teams basically deployed, Manchester United also began its own operations. Previously, RB Leipzig's striker Seschko announced that he would officially enter the transfer market. At that time, the players were very close to Arsenal, but because the Bundesliga team's asking price was too high, the Gunners withdrew from the competition in time and went to chase Zhekelais instead.

When the player's transfer was delayed until August, the players were anxious and even started to get along with Newcastle. It was also at this time that Manchester United finally came to an end, and after some negotiations, Light Speed reached an agreement. It is reported that the player's initial transfer fee is as high as 85 million euros, which does not include the additional terms of 8.5 million euros that are easily reached in the contract. Considering that Manchester United and Leipzig will play another friendly match, the German team can get an additional 2 million euros. The

player was able to successfully join Manchester United, and Seschko's personal wishes undoubtedly played a decisive role. It is reported that in order to join the Red Devils, Xieschko gave up the contract for better personal treatment in Newcastle. The player's weekly salary at Manchester United is 200,000 pounds before tax, which is basically in line with Manchester United's current salary structure framework.

So far, Manchester United has completely completed the upgrade of the forward trident. They introduced three attackers in one summer. Without counting the additional terms, Seshko, Mbemo and Cunya spent a total of more than 220 million euros. In their respective leagues, the three players scored a total of 48 goals last season, directly exceeding the number of goals scored by Manchester United in the Premier League.

However, for the Red Devils, their operations in this summer are obviously not over yet. After introducing Seschko, Hoylen, who performed well in the warm-up match, is likely to face leaving the team. AC Milan may be the most likely next player for players. In terms of strengthening, Manchester United is also associated with Brighton midfielder Baleba. Considering that Brighton's asking price for players has reached about 100 million euros, it will be difficult for Manchester United to grab the players.
