Manchester United have developed greater defensive solidity under caretaker manager Michael Carrick, conceding just five goals in their last six Premier League games. For context, the Red Devils let in 32 goals in their previous 21 league games this season.
The English giants conceded 54 goals in 38 Premier League games last campaign, and their overall record this season is not a significant improvement. Meanwhile, Harry Maguire’s contract expires at the end of this season, and his future remains unclear.
Matthijs de Ligt was a rock at the back in the first few months of the campaign, but he has remained sidelined since the start of December. The situation has prompted United to consider reinforcements ahead of the summer, and recent reports suggest they have their eyes on Tottenham Hotspur’s Micky van de Ven.
One of Premier League’s best
Van de Ven joined Spurs from Wolfsburg in the summer of 2023 and has since developed into one of the best defenders in the Premier League. The Dutchman has appeared 33 times in all competitions this season, starting every game.
