Manchester United have strengthened several areas of Michael Carrick's squad ahead of the 2026/27 season, including:
- Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans — midfield reinforcements
- Tynan Thompson — joined from Tottenham Hotspur to add depth on the left flank
- Karl Darlow and Kit Margetson — additions to the goalkeeping department
However, United must also balance the books before the transfer window closes. Earlier this summer, reports indicated the club was prepared to sell Manuel Ugarte after two difficult seasons at Old Trafford. Those plans were complicated after the midfielder suffered an ACL injury while representing Uruguay against Spain at the 2026 World Cup.
United have also shown willingness to listen to offers for young talent. For instance, Harry Amass has reportedly attracted a £6 million valuation despite impressing during the pre-season win over Rosenborg.
Meanwhile, another United midfielder has now completed an official move away from the club.

The announcement came through the agency's official Instagram account, welcoming Carrick after he signed his scholarship with Manchester United.
Jacey Carrick is the son of Manchester United head coach Michael Carrick. He has developed through the club's academy and is regarded as a promising young talent in United's youth system.
TTM wrote: "Welcome to the TTM family, Jacey Carrick."
The agency also confirmed that it assisted the 16-year-old in completing his United scholarship. Its statement added that it is excited to see what the future holds for the young midfielder as his development continues.
Scholarship agreements mark an important stage for academy players, allowing them to continue their progression toward professional football. Jacey will now look to impress at academy level as he follows in the footsteps of his father, who enjoyed a successful playing career at Old Trafford before becoming the club's head coach.
