Man Utd transfer news LIVE: United are linked with Ryan Gravenberch (Image: GETTY)
Manchester United are hoping to have a busy last few days of the summer transfer window. Erik ten Hag is close to adding a new signing to his squad, while several stars could be on their way.
United have made four signings so far this summer, spending almost £180million in the process. A fifth arrival is almost certain, as a new goalkeeper will come in once Dean Henderson's move to Crystal Palace is complete.
Ten Hag knows he will likely have to sell before he can make any more permanent signings. He could therefore look to sign players on loan, with a left-back high on his agenda following the injury to Luke Shaw.
Donny van de Beek and Eric Bailly are among those who could leave, while reports over Harry Maguire's future have surfaced again. But clubs are in a race against time to complete deals, with the window shutting at 11pm on Friday.

Former Manchester United midfielder Fred appears to have confirmed that Fenerbache shot-stopper Altay Bayindir is on his way to Old Trafford.
Bayindir is understood to be in Manchester following a medical as he finalises a deal costing the Red Devils around £4.3million.
And Fred seems to have verified these reports. “I wished Altay good luck when he left. He is going to join a great team," he said during a recent press conference.
According to the Daily Telegraph, Hojbjerg could join United, though, if the Old Trafford outfit seriously pursue a deal this week. Ten Hag is keen to sign another midfielder after having the weaknesses in that area of the pitch exposed already this season.
Sheikh Jassim stance on making public message as Glazers stall
As the Manchester United takeover saga continues to rumble on, Sheikh Jassim has reportedly decided not to comment publicly amid his ongoing battle to buy the club against Sir Jim Ratcliffe. There have been few updates in recent months despite supporters holding a sit-in protest at Old Trafford on Saturday, calling for the Glazer family to sell to Jassim.
But Fabrizio Romanoclaims that the Qatari bidder currently has no intention on commenting on anything regarding the sale.
Manchester United are not willing to allow Harry Maguire to leave on loan this summer. The Red Devils are only prepared to entertain a permanent switch with interest expected to intensify from several Premier League clubs including West Ham, Everton and Newcastle.
That is according to the Daily Mail, who claim that Maguire is open to leaving the club in pursuit of more regular playing time.
The Hammers have recently re-opened talks with Maguire but any move to the London Stadium still depends on him being paid a bonus to leave by United with his prospective suitors unable to match his current wages at Old Trafford, per the Sun.

Manchester United academy goalkeeper Dermot Mee has signed a new deal with the Red Devils. The 20-year-old shot-stopper has been with the club since 2015 and has spent time on loan with the Fulham Academy, Trafford FC, Runcorn Linnets, Witton Albion and most recently Altrincham in the Conference National League.
Gary Neville wants to see Manchester United make two signings this week.
Speaking on his podcast, the pundit said: "There's no doubt they want another player or two.
"A left-back and central midfield player and I think they need that or else they're going to get put under real pressure, particularly when all the other competitions kick in.
"I think there is another one or two players needed just to beef up the squad because of injuries and he does want another midfield player to sit in there alongside Casemiro."
