Man Utd Transfers: 5 Last-Minute Deadline Day Deals That Could Happen

2. Andros Townsend Signs From Spurs

Manchester United are planning what would be an audacious move for Spurs winger Andros Townsend before the transfer window shuts, according to the Metro. Townsend has leapt to prominence recently after making an instant mark on the England side, while he has also put in some assured performances for Tottenham as well. And that has not gone unnoticed by United, whose wingers have been something of a let-down this season. Ashley Young has been embroiled in a cheat storm, the aforementioned Nani has failed to live up to his full potential and Antonio Valencia is inconsistent. And that could leave the Red Devils in the market for a new wide man before the window slams shut - and a cheeky swap with Spurs that would see Nani go the opposite direction would be welcome. United's midfield is steadily improving thanks to the arrival of Juan Mata from Chelsea and a new winger could well do the world of good for the champion's top four hopes.
