As one of the biggest clubs in world football, Manchester United have always been an attractive destination for players – and that allure has increased greatly over the past few months.The team’s fortunes have been transformed since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer replaced Jose Mourinho in the dugout and a finish in the top four this season is a real possibility.

ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK – 4-2-3-1
United as a club were suffering from an identity crisis under Mourinho, with the Portuguese’s sometimes ultra-defensive tactics conflicting with the attacking football they played during the glory days under Sir Alex Ferguson.Solskjaer, who played under Ferguson between 1996-2007, has restored some of that positivity and there is a feeling among United fans that they’ve got their club back.Goalkeeper
If the club are to become title contenders again, they have to keep hold of David de Gea, whose deal was set to expires in June.However, United activated a one-year extension on the Spaniard’s contract meaning he is likely to stay for another season.![De Gea is one of the world’s best goalkeepers](https://talksport.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2019/02/GettyImages-1093381938.jpg?strip=all&w=960&quality=100)
Defence
They’ll also have to improve in defence and ideally get a world class centre-back in.Enter Real Madrid’s Raphael Varane, who is reportedly considering his future at the Bernabeu and United are one of the few clubs who could afford the player and his wages.![Varane won the World Cup with France last summer](https://talksport.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2018/08/VARANE.jpg?strip=all&w=960&quality=100)
Midfield
United fans won’t want to hear it, but they may have to prepare for life without Pogba as the Frenchman appears keen for a move to Madrid at some point in his career.![Pogba may well have his sights on Spain](https://talksport.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2019/03/GettyImages-1133206075.jpg?strip=all&w=960&quality=100)

Attack
It’s in the final third where the magic could really be happening, with Griezmann, Hudson-Odoi and Sancho potentially joining an attack that already includes Marcus Rashford and Romelu Lukaku.As already stated, United are ‘front runners’ to sign Griezmann and he would play in the no.10 role, with aforementioned targets Hudson-Odoi and Sancho flanking the France superstar.![Griezmann is wanted by a number of clubs](https://talksport.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2019/03/GettyImages-1133463636.jpg?strip=all&w=960&quality=100)
