3) Dante

There were whispers that Dante was in fact on the verge of joining United towards the end of the January transfer window, but predictably no move ever materialised. I would personally struggle to see why Dante would leave Bayern Munich, however the lure of the Premier League and the chance of a fresh challenge could tempt the afro donning Brazilian away from the Allianz Arena.

Despite a relatively average season thus far, Dante is still one of the worlds most recognised defenders and will command a starting place in Brazil’s World Cup XI in the summer.

Big, strong and predictably comfortable on the ball for a Brazilian, Dante also provides a large threat coming forward from set plays. This signing would provide genuine world class experience at the back and bring more balance to a Manchester United side that is very attack heavy its distribution of quality.

The drawback on this move however would Dante’s age. At 30, the centre back is very much approaching the winter of his career. Would United want to replace one ageing defender with another? Perhaps.
