As Manchester United: As Manchester United gear up for a challenging Premier League season, manager Erik ten Hag remains hopeful for further additions to his squad. The team aims to build on the momentum from their FA Cup victory over Manchester City last season and push for a top-four finish, despite injury setbacks.

United has already bolstered their ranks with the signings of central defender Lenny Yoro and forward Joshua Zirkzee. Both players are expected to feature in the upcoming pre-season friendly against Arsenal at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. However, ten Hag is keen to add more depth to the squad to avoid the vulnerabilities exposed by injuries last season.

"I want the squad as strong as possible," ten Hag stated at his pre-match press conference. "We already made two very good buys, so when everyone is fit, we have a team that can beat everyone. But also in squad depth, we have to catch up. We know that because when we had injuries, we were vulnerable, and we have to avoid this."
