Manchester United Secure Key Transfers with Early Moves Under New Leadership

Posted : 22 July 2024

Manchester United are making strong moves in the transfer market, with manager Erik ten Hag praising the club's leadership for securing new players early, following the signings of Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee.

 

Since British billionaire and INEOS chairman Jim Ratcliffe took over football operations at Old Trafford, acquiring a 25 percent stake in February, the club has seen a revamped hierarchy and an infusion of new ideas. United signed French defender Yoro on a five-year contract for 62 million euros ($67 million) on Thursday. The 18-year-old was pursued by several top European clubs, including Real Madrid, before choosing Manchester.

 

Another key addition is striker Zirkzee, who had an impressive season with Serie A club Bologna and played for the Netherlands in the European Championship. United paid 42.5 million euros for the 23-year-old, securing him on a five-year deal. Ten Hag expressed satisfaction with the proactive approach, stating, “It is very good that we are on the front foot, we are very proactive. The leadership is doing a great job, and that’s how we want to act as United.” Yoro made a strong debut in United's 2-0 pre-season win over Rangers, while Zirkzee, after a break post-European Championship, is expected to join the squad in August.
