Despite the January transfer window rarely producing blockbuster deals, Manchester United are set for a frantic finish.
The Red Devils could be one of the Premier League’s busiest clubs in the final days of the window.
United are preparing to announce Patrick Dorgu as Ruben Amorim’s first signing, but there could be major outgoings.
Alejandro Garnacho and Tyrell Malacia remain linked with moves away, though the main focus is on Marcus Rashford.
The England international was recently criticised by Amorim and now faces an uncertain future at Old Trafford.

A transfer before the deadline appears likely, but options for Marcus Rashford are far from straightforward.
His preferred move is to Barcelona, yet the Spanish giants must create squad space before making an offer.
Borussia Dortmund have emerged as another potential suitor, though Rashford has little interest in playing in Germany.
With European options running out, Ben Jacobs has suggested Saudi side Al-Ahli could launch a late bid.
“Don’t rule out, as a little bit of a surprise, even though he’s said ‘no’ repeatedly and categorically, Al-Ahli coming back in with a late offer
“Saying to Rashford ‘You haven’t got an option in Europe, now will you reconsider Saudi versus staying at Manchester United?’” Jacobs told talkSPORT.

“I don’t see the player changing his mind, but Al-Ahli still want a left-sided attacker, so just keep an eye on them as a dark horse if that move to Barcelona doesn’t come off.”
If Rashford’s representatives fail to secure a loan or permanent move within Europe, he faces a difficult decision.
Staying at United would likely mean being frozen out for the rest of the season, as Amorim is unlikely to change his stance.
The Portuguese coach has made it clear that he demands full commitment from his players.
Rashford has already been warned that he must leave if he wants to play regular football.
If Barcelona fail to secure his signature and Al-Ahli make a lucrative late offer, Rashford’s priority will be tested.
He must choose between continuing his career or sitting on the sidelines, as financial incentives won’t be an issue.
