Monday's Manchester United transfer talk news roundup: Paul Pogba, Fred, Eduardo Camavinga

Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Manchester United on Monday, November 9.

A frustrating summer transfer window has now closed with Manchester United having missed out on a number of their top targets, including Jadon Sancho.

The Red Devils were busy on deadline day, though, bringing in Edinson Cavani, Alex Telles and Facundo Pellistri, in addition to agreeing a deal to sign Amad Traore in January. Attention will now switch to other business they may do when the window reopens in the winter.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings from Old Trafford.

Monday morning's Manchester United transfer talk news roundup:


Louis Saha: 'Manchester United need four more signings to challenge for titles'

Former Manchester United striker Louis Saha has claimed that the Red Devils need four more signings in order to challenge for major trophies once again.

United eased the pressure on head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with an impressive 3-1 win at Everton on Saturday afternoon, but the club will enter the international break down in 14th position in the Premier League table.

Saha has said that the 20-time English champions are still some way off battling for titles, with the Frenchman insisting that four more players of a similar quality to Bruno Fernandes are required to help the club return to former glories.

"The focus is on Solskjaer. But you also have to look at the recruitment. Some new signings like Fred, you can see the quality but he's not going to make the difference," Saha told Stadium Astro.

"The signing of Fernandes, you need four of them. You need four of them to actually compete and this is what is missing."

United, who finished third in last season's Premier League table, will be looking to make it back-to-back wins when they welcome West Bromwich Albion to Old Trafford on November 21.



Real Madrid to revive interest in Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba?

Real Madrid are reportedly ready to renew their interest in Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.

With United having taken up a 12-month option in the player's contract, the World Cup winner is now tied to the Premier League giants until 2022.

However, the playmaker has endured a below-par start to the campaign, making five starts and six substitute outings in all competitions.

At a time when United officials may be prepared to consider a sale for £53m, AS claims that Real are considering whether to make a bid for the 27-year-old.

Although Los Blancos are being frequently linked with Rennes prospect Eduardo Camavinga, Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane would allegedly prefer to sign Pogba.

The France international is unlikely to consider a new deal at United while he finds himself in and out of the starting lineup.
