Manchester United struggled for regular creativity and goals from midfield - Paul Pogba and the rest of his creative-minded teammates lost form towards the season's end. So, Ole wants to bolster options available to him as he seeks a return to attacking football at Old Trafford.

Bruno Fernandes had a prolific 2018/19 season for Sporting CP, racking up 20 goals and 13 assists in Portugal's top-flight. The 24-year-old's stock has taken a sharp rise with Tottenham, Manchester City and Liverpool all said to be chasing his signature. However, United themselves are reportedly ahead of their rivals at present and a deal is expected to be concluded within a few days.


#1 Aaron Wan-Bissaka

Aaron Wan-Bissaka had a staggering 2018/19 season in the Premier League and is widely considered one of the best right-backs in English football. The last campaign was Aaron's breakthrough season at Crystal Palace, having bided his time patiently and earning a first-team berth under Roy Hodgson.

Wan-Bissaka is an immovable object defensively, averaging 3.68 tackles per game with a success rate of 94% while also completing 2.4 interceptions too. The 21-year-old would certainly enhance United's depleted right-hand side while providing competition to Diogo Dalot, with reports suggesting a deal is imminent to sign him from Palace.
