Manchester United are in the market to sign another forward during the summer transfer window, alongside strengthening their midfield.
The key focus in the early days of the window was to bring in midfield additions, and that has continued throughout the summer.
United have secured the signatures of Youri Tielemans from Aston Villa and Andrey Santos from Chelsea, but it appears that signing a third midfielder is on the agenda.
The Red Devils lost Casemiro earlier in the window following the expiration of his contract, while Manuel Ugarte has also suffered a serious injury.
As a result, it might not just be two midfielders that United look to bring in over the coming weeks, with a third likely to arrive through the door.

According to a report from Team Talk, Manchester United are one of the sides showing an interest in signing Everton forward Iliman Ndiaye in the summer transfer window.
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano recently claimed that Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal have opened talks to try to sign the Senegalese forward, and that's alerted clubs like United.
The Toffees are hoping to tie Ndiaye, who has been described as 'one of the most exciting attackers in the Premier League', down to a new deal rather than offload him in the summer transfer window, but there's no doubt everyone has a price.
United are believed to be searching for a versatile forward who is capable of playing all across the front line, and Ndiaye is one of the names under 'serious' consideration.

Competing with a club like Al-Hilal when it comes to finances certainly won't be easy for United.
If Ndiaye is only motivated by money in terms of his next move, then the Saudi Arabian club is likely to win the race to secure his signature.
If the Senegalese forward wants to be playing Premier League and Champions League football, then United could have a strong chance of winning the race.
Ndiaye would certainly be a smart signing for United at the right price, but there's every chance that a club like Al-Hilal will drastically push the asking price up.
