Manchester United is reportedly unlikely to make additional signings before the upcoming transfer deadline next week. The club has been active in the transfer market, nearing a £65 million deal for Carlos Baleba from Brighton, which would make him their fourth senior signing this summer. United's recent signings include midfielders Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans, along with goalkeeper Karl Darlow. Although there were links to adding another forward and a left-back, further business appears to be constrained due to unsuccessful attempts to offload existing players like Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee, as well as high asking prices for targeted players. The club is facing challenges in reshaping its roster as the deadline approaches.
