Man United Transfers: Three midfielders to look at for the January transfer window

Ross Barkley

In truth, Ross Barkley isn’t going to solve many of United’s problems. He is a young English midfielder, and therefor the British press want him to be linked with the Premier League’s big clubs, so they make it happen. He is still young and can progress, as his transfer would echo the signing of Wayne Rooney, it may also mirror the huge price tag. Barkley hasn’t been bad this season and is currently looking like the best young player England has to offer. Though it is not certain if Barkley is the name Moyes must bring in when January rolls around, as Shinji Kagawa’s transfer was eclipsed by Eden Hazard signing for Chelsea and Santi Cazorla transferring to Arsenal. It may happen again, as Chelsea have been linked with moves for Cavani and Falcao, and with Arsenal searching for a new striker, Barkley will not quite cut it.
