Man Utd Transfers - 5 January Signings To Get Back Into Title Race

3. Koke (Atletico Madrid)

Taking into account United's issues in the middle of the park, a new midfielder wouldn't go amiss in January. The likes of Anderson will surely be given their marching orders next month, while Tom Cleverley is struggling to live up to the potential that once saw him dubbed "the next Paul Scholes" and Marouane Fellaini has bombed since his move from Everton. As such, United have been linked with Atletico Madrid's Koke recently, the up-and-coming 21-year-old making waves in La Liga. The Spain international scored three league goals last season and has already achieved that tally this term, in only 15 appearances. Moyes recently watched the starlet in action against Porto and could be about to make his move next month as he looks to transform the midfield inherited from the Sir Alex Ferguson era.
