Manchester United have finally made some significant transfer progress, with their pursuit of the “perfect” Mason Mount now seeming as though it will end in success.
Manchester United Now Set to Sign Mason Mount After Transfer Breakthrough
Manchester United Want to Sign Another Midfielder
The Red Devils are certainly in need of another midfielder to add to their ranks this summer.
Their depth in the middle of the park is poor and was shown to be as such last season when the likes of Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro were unavailable.
Furthermore, with Christian Eriksen not quite at the level needed to challenge for the Premier League and Champions League titles, it was always going to be the case that United brought in another creative midfielder to replace the Dane.
That now seems to be on the verge of happening, with Mount looking set to complete his move to Old Trafford.
