The Premier League's "standard king" Yoro, who was absent due to injury less than a month after coming to the team, is reported to have to rest for three months and will not be able to return until November. As a result, Manchester United have given Yoro a new task, and at the same time, the target of the recruitment has also changed, hoping to "pack" the two.
In the pre-season warm-up against Arsenal, Yoro and Hojlen both left the pitch with injuries, with Hojren likely to be out for six weeks and Yoro out for a longer period of time, possibly up to three months. As a result, Manchester United's transfer fee of more than 60 million is expected to miss out on one Community Shield, nine Premier League games, and three Europa League games, which is a considerable loss.
There are reports that teams including Paris Saint-Germain have since waived Yoro, partly due to injury concerns for the 18-year-old. However, Manchester United does not see it this way, thinking that the results of Yoro's physical examination are quite good, and there is no so-called "old injury", and this injury is just "bad luck".
In any case, the temporary loss of a young defender for United is a problem that they have to face. Therefore, the club also gave Joro a new task, hoping that the young player, not to think too much, use the three-month break to settle down in England, adapt to life in Manchester, observe the team's game, and quickly adapt to the rhythm of Manchester United after his return.
Manchester's rainy days are something that many players don't like, and some players have complained in the past that the environment here is a bit oppressive, gray all day long, and lacks the fun of super cities such as London. Therefore, it is quite necessary for Yoro to take advantage of the absence to integrate into local life as soon as possible, so that he can find the joy of life from the heavy blow, and it is best to be able to do so, and enter the state as soon as he returns.
Similar to last season's emergency loan signings of Sergio Reguilon and Amrabat, Yoro's injury has caused United to change their targets, with De Ligt and Mazraoui both being pursued. Unlike in the past, Manchester United are hoping to "pack" both at the same time, with an initial offer of €65 million.
However, such a price did not meet Bayern Munich's expectations, and between the two teams, I believe that further negotiations will be required to see if the gap between the two sides can be narrowed. Of course, from Bayern's point of view, according to Manchester United's "practice" in the past few years, only the introduction of De Ligt alone may pay 80 million, but now the two combined, they can't reach this figure, the change is too big, so it is difficult to accept.
The new management, led by Bellada and Ashworth, has become more pragmatic this season, and the recruitment will not pursue "the more expensive, the better", but more pragmatic and live within their means. The departures of companies like Cambuvara and Mason Greenwood both have a good price, and Donny van de Beek has a low transfer fee, but the floating clause is easy to achieve and is expected to have a good income.
Moreover, Wan-Bissaka is preparing to leave, if he can leave, Mazraoui's arrival will become more likely, and some analysts also pointed out that Mazraoui is qualified to play two full-backs, which can stimulate Antony's potential and make Manchester United's right side become active.
However, last season, Mazraoui was absent many times due to injury, which is a factor that Manchester United, which is still deeply troubled by injuries, has to take into account, and the Morocco defender is almost 27 years old, exceeding the 25-year-old recruitment rule. Therefore, there are still some doubts about whether Manchester United will be able to successfully bring in two Bayern defenders.
