Manchester United are being linked with a move to sign a new full-back in the summer transfer window as they look to improve Michael Carrick's squad.
The Red Devils have only strengthened in the midfield department so far in the summer transfer window, bringing in Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans from Chelsea and Aston Villa, respectively.
United have also secured the signature of goalkeeper Karl Darlow, but he's likely to come in and be a backup option for Carrick.
Outside of that, United have been fairly slow with their recruitment, but they might need to get a move on after qualifying for the Champions League.
The Manchester Club needs to build a deeper and more competitive squad in order to compete on all fronts heading into the new season.

Man Utd eyeing full-back transfer
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick looks on after Premier League win against Nottingham Forest
According to reports, Manchester United are one of the sides showing an interest in signing Galatasaray full-back Wilfred Singo in the summer transfer window.
The Ivorian defender has an agreement with the Turkish club that he can leave this summer if an interested club meets his asking price.
That fee is believed to be in the region of £35 million, and he's also keen on making a move to the Premier League this summer.
Singo, described as a freak athlete by Como scout Ben Mattinson, has already rejected a move to Inter Milan due to the fact that he has ambitions of playing in England.
United face competition from a number of Premier League clubs for his signature, and it remains to be seen whether they will make a concrete move.

Right-back unlikely to be a priority
Manchester United's Diogo Dalot rubs his head.
Signing a right-back before the end of the window doesn't feel like it should be one of United's biggest priorities.
United already have Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui as options in the right-back position, while Leny Yoro was also used in that position during pre-season.
United need to be focusing on strengthening other positions in the summer transfer window before bringing in a new right back.
The Red Devils have almost solved their midfield situation, and attention should be turning to adding more options in the final third for Carrick.
