Manchester United kicked off their pre-season with an all too familiar performance during their goalless draw with Leeds United in Sweden.
The Red Devils were held to a stalemate by their fierce rivals in Stockholm last Saturday, offering little to inspire the club’s supporters ahead of the upcoming Premier League Summer Series in the United States.
Ruben Amorim was not entirely pleased with what he witnessed from the touchline and pointed to United’s lack of dynamism in midfield as one of the club’s key issues. “We have a lack of pace. Especially in the middle of the park, you can feel it’s hard to bring the ball [forward],” confessed the Portuguese coach.
Well, United still have the opportunity to remedy their longstanding midfield issues during the remainder of the summer transfer window, with some fresh legs in the engine room potentially making a sizeable impact in Amorim’s two-man midfield next season.
Here are five midfielders that would be effective additions for the Red Devils.
