#2 Gareth Bale
More than the creative players, United need a quality winger. They tried to sign Ivan Perisic last season, but the deal did not materialize.
Gareth Bale reminded everyone last Saturday that he is still one of the best players in the world. He produced a stunning display in Kiev, as Real Madrid won their third UEFA Champions League title in a row.
Manchester United’s desire to sign the Welshman is no secret. United tried to sign him on multiple occasions in the past but failed in their every pursuit so far. Though they have Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, and Alexis Sanchez to play on the flanks, none of them can even come close to Gareth Bale. He could certainly bring back the X-factor to Old Trafford.
He scored a goal every 110 minutes last season, which is phenomenal for a winger. He has struck 16 goals in his 20 La Liga starts in 2017/18, and looked dangerous with his blistering pace and technical abilities.
