Manchester United is ramping up its efforts in the summer transfer window after successfully signing Ederson from Atalanta. According to Fabrizio Romano, the club is set to enhance its midfield, with plans to secure at least one more player in that position. The focus has shifted towards bolstering Michael Carrick's squad as they prepare for the upcoming Champions League season.
