Man Utd news: Erik ten Hag makes telling Glazer demand as transfer shortlist drawn up

The Premier League season isn't quite grinding to a halt just yet, but Erik ten Hag still plenty to ponder ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Dutchman has made a significant impact at Manchester United this season after ending the club's six-year trophy drought and steering them back into contention for Champions League football. However, Ten Hag will be expecting funds to continue his overhaul of the current playing squad regardless of whether or not United secure a top-four finish between now and May.

United are expected to be in the market for an elite striker in the summer with Harry Kane a long-term target. Elsewhere, David de Gea's future is under scrutiny after his horror show in the Europa League in midweek. With transfer talk beginning to accelerate, Mirror Football rounds up all the latest news from in and around Old Trafford...

The likes of Harry Kane and Victor Osimhen have both been linked with United in recent weeks but uncertainty over the club's long-term future amid the ongoing takeover saga is believed to be hampering Ten Hag's preparations.

Manchester United are sweating on the fitness of Raphael Varane amid growing concerns that the defender could be set to miss the rest of the season.

The Red Devils have already lost Lisandro Martinez until the summer after the defender underwent surgery to repair a broken metatarsal earlier this week.

And now Erik ten Hag may be forced to cope without his other first-choice centre-back, who could face a six-week spell on the sidelines with an ankle issue.
