United are set to make an improved offer to Barcelona for Frenkie de Jong. The two clubs have as yet been apart in their valuations of the player, though there is optimism at Old Trafford that a deal can be agreed with the Spanish giants reportedly open to selling the Dutch talent.
The Reds are also interested in Christian Eriksen, who is available as a free agent as his short-term deal at Brentford expires. The Danish playmaker is reportedly 'considering his options' and is expected to decide his future in the coming weeks.

This is what De Jong's in-game profile looks like on FM22.
