#3 Eric Bailly, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic - Manchester United

Eric Bailly and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are two perfect purchases for United's new man at the helm Jose Mourinho. United got Bailly for €38m and Mkhitaryan for €42m. Baily is a perfect match for United because United's boss Jose Mourinho is known for his organized back four.

The former Chelsea boss likes to play defensive football and United needed someone to partner Chris Smalling at the back. Bailly is the right man as he had an exceptional last season for Villareal.

The icing on the cake is Mkhitaryan who could add some attacking flair to United's slow midfield. United has been criticized for playing 'boring' and monotonous football last season, which can change due to Mkhitaryan's inclusion. The biggest addition to United’s squad is Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is said to have a very good relationship with the manager and arrived to United on a free transfer.
