Manchester United hopes to sign a quality central defender, but they have decided to wait until 2026 to get the deal done.
According to GMS, they believe signing a quality central defender this month is complicated. Therefore, they decided to shift their plans until next year. There’s no doubt they need to improve defensively, and a quality central defender would be a wise addition.

Man United need a defender
They looked vulnerable in the back, and if they want to fight for the main trophy, they need to improve in that area of the pitch. They’ve done well this season to improve their offensive units. This summer we had a complete overhaul of Front 3. Manchester United brought in Benjamin Sesco, Mateus Cunha and Brian Mbeumo.
It will be interesting to see if they can improve their performance levels this season and promote UEFA Champions League locations. However, clubs of their height should regularly fight for major trophies, and they need to insert weaknesses in their defense to make it happen.
Will Man United be able to return to the Champions League?
You also need a reliable central midfielder and a central defender. It will be interesting to see if they can bring the right additions next year. Returning to the Champions League certainly helps them attract the best players. It is still unclear how things will develop over the next few months.
Manchester United have not been able to compete for large trophies in recent seasons. They have something at their disposal by talented managers. They were able to insert most of their weaknesses this summer as well. It remains to be seen whether they can bounce back hard.
