Manchester United had a very busy summer window, with many players coming in and many going out.
The transfer window is now closed in England, but United could still finish a few more moves in the next 24 hours, and even beyond that with some players going abroad.
New Signings Already In
The Red Devils made some big signings this summer. Striker Benjamin Sesko, winger Bryan Mbeumo, and forward Matheus Cunha all joined as big names.
They also signed young defender Diego Leon, who is seen as one for the future.
United are also close to confirming the £18.2m signing of goalkeeper Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp.
Reports say the young keeper has signed his contract and already done his medical at Old Trafford.
The club decided not to go for Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez, who was too costly and older.
Manager Ruben Amorim hopes these new players can settle quickly and help the team improve after a slow start to the season.

Big Names Leave Old Trafford
There was also a big change with players leaving.
Young star Alejandro Garnacho made a shock move to Chelsea, while winger Antony returned to Real Betis on a permanent deal.
Some players left on loan, like Marcus Rashford and Rasmus Højlund, who will play their football away this season.
Jadon Sancho is very close to a loan move to Aston Villa, with only the final announcement waiting.
Defender Tyrell Malacia nearly joined Elche in Spain, but that deal collapsed late on. S
till, he could move to Turkey or Saudi Arabia because their windows are open for another 12 days.
Free Agents Still on Table
Even though the window shut, United could still bring in players who are free agents.
These players have no club, so they can sign anytime. One name linked is Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, the former Arsenal midfielder.
United also like Josh Brownhill if they get hit with an injury problem.
At the back, Kurt Zouma is available after leaving West Ham and could add depth in defence.
In attack, ex-Chelsea man Hakim Ziyech is free too, but at 32 years old it looks unlikely United will go for him.

What Next for United
United failed to land a new midfielder in the summer.
They wanted Carlos Baleba from Brighton, but the fee was too high, close to nine figures. That deal never had a real chance.
Now the focus is on how the new signings fit in. Manager Amorim is under pressure to get quick results.
Fans will watch closely to see if Sesko, Mbeumo, Cunha, and maybe Lammens can give United the spark they need.
The next days are still key, with the chance for loans abroad and free signings. Manchester United’s transfer story is not fully over yet, even if the window is shut in England.
