The Red Devils have less than 24 hours to complete their summer business, with Joshua Zirkzee, Leny Yoro, Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt all signing earlier in the window. While Manuel Ugarte looks set to be the fifth incoming of the window, with his arrival from PSG set for Friday.

"He could play but if we had the choices, we preferred to put other players on the bench but that will change in the season as we have to rotate, because we can't play so many games the same. You see how important the subs are and you see it is about balance.
"Sometimes it is frustrating about the team, the club and there will be more players in this position. We expect them to fight for the club, as we have so many games to play for the club. Everyone will get their minutes and then they have to prove it."
