If Manchester United do want to add some Premier League experience to their side, it may come in the shape of someone who has spent a bit of time in England with their biggest rivals - Emre Can. The 26-year-old played 110 times in the Premier League for Liverpool between 2014 and 2018, before making the move to Juventus on a free transfer.

Things haven’t quite worked out at the Italian giants though, and he has appeared just eight times in Serie A this season, and was left out of their squad for the Champions League group stage.

He may be available for a move this summer, and he will want to be playing somewhere he can earn himself a spot in Germany’s squad for Euro 2020 this summer. Much like Longstaff, he has a much more defensive mindset, and doesn’t really offer the same sort of goal threat as Pogba. He will however come cheaper than some of the other players on this list, and he is the sort of player United need.
