Captain Bruno Fernandes criticized the “lazy” attitude of some teammates at MU. The Portuguese midfielder asked MU to recruit more players to increase competitiveness in the squad.
MU has just won the Premier League Summer Series Friendship Championship after defeating Wets Ham (2-1), Bournemouth (4-1) and drawing Everton (2-2). Even so, the performance of Everton was less convincing before Everton reduced the excitement of teachers and coach Ruben Amorim. And Bruno Fernandes did not hesitate to say frankly MU's problem:
“Our performance today is not very good. We are a bit lazy. We are not so allowed. Because if we are lazy, we will have to pay a very expensive price. Obviously we need more competition in the squad, need more quality so that all players must make efforts to compete the main stone. Hopefully the team will have a few more players this summer.”
Bruno said not wrong. MU is still weak in the goalkeeper position, central midfielder and striker. If not supplemented in time, they are difficult to reach the top 4 seasons. And as Bruno said, the lack of competition will lead to “lazy”. Here are some players that MU should bring in the rest of the summer:
Benjamin Sesko
In the match against Everton, MU did not use any real striker in the attack. Rasmus Hojlund is not enough to trust and plan to recruit Benjamin Sesko is still being implemented. However, MU faces fierce competition from Newcastle, the team is negotiating with RB Leipzig. The German team hangs £ 70 million for Sesko. MU needs to spend on the position of the striker if not only added in attack like Cunha, Mbeumo also does not bring the last output is the goal.
Gianluigi Donnarumma
Altay Bayindir played unconvincing against Everton. The goalkeeper is about to turn 40 years old Tom Heaton is just a fire -fighting solution when needed. MU still has to rely on Andrre Onana but it is clear that the Cameroon goalkeeper has not guaranteed safety for the goal. Meanwhile in PSG, Donnarumma has determined to leave after PSG brought Lucas Chevalier from Lille. This is an ideal opportunity for MU to own one of the best goalkeepers in the world. In addition, MU has another option that is not bad, experienced goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez of Aston Villa.
Morten hjulmand
MU spent strongly for the attack but neglected the midfield. Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte and Casemiro have not guaranteed certainty for the middle. Meanwhile, Amorim understands very well the former student Morten Hjulmand at Sporting Lisbon. The Danish defensive midfielder has the ability to intercept effectively, awake play. Hjulmand's price is only about 40 million pounds. However, adapting to high intensity in the Premier League is a question mark for the 26 -year -old midfielder.
Carlos BaleBa
Compared to Hjulmand, Carlos BaleBa is a less risky target. The midfielder of Brighton had 2 convincing competitions in the Premier League (61 matches, 3 goals). The fact that MU bought Cunha and Mbeumo also showed that Amorim prioritized players who were familiar with the Premier League. However, BaleBa's price is not cheap, about 70 million pounds. But if the Cameroon player, MU will have an almighty machine in the middle of the field, a midfielder possesses strength, ability to pass the ball and even bold breakthroughs.
Javi Guerra
A cheap plan to strengthen MU midfield is Javi Guerra. Valencia's player is valued at 22 million pounds. Despite being 22 years old, Guerra has been the pillar between Valencia in the last two seasons. The Spanish U21 player belongs to the Box to Box midfielder, with the ability to hold the ball skillful and sharp tactical vision. Valencia proposed to extend the contract but Guerra refused. It is a better opportunity for MU to win this potential rich midfielder.
Lucien ago
Lucien Agoume has the same price as Javi Guerra, around 20 million pounds. However, the French midfielder has a more steel -rich play style. Having failed in Inter but Agoume made many imprints in the Sevilla shirt with 37 appearances last season. Especially in the U21 Europe 2025, Agoume played dazzling in the journey to the semi -finals of France U21. The 23 -year -old still has the potential to develop if rubbed in a more severe environment like the Premier League.
