Man Utd Transfers: 5 More Marquee Signings David Moyes Could Make

2. Marco Reus

As well as a new left-back, centre-back and midfield anchorman, United also need to sign two new wingers over the course of this transfer window and next. Nani is a constant source of frustration, and has failed to live up to his potential since arriving from Sporting Lisbon in 2007, and perhaps now never will. Ashley Young is not Manchester United quality and has likewise failed to deliver following a few promising seasons with Aston Villa, while there are doubts over Wilfried Zaha and Antonio Valencia. Marco Reus would be an excellent signing for the Red Devils, and manager David Moyes is seriously entertaining the prospect of activating the star's £30 million release clause. The 24-year-old Borussia Dortmund star, who can play attacking midfield and out on the left-flank, has been an integral part of Dortmund's side in recent years, helping them reach the Champions League final last May. Dortmund would clearly by reluctant to sell having been stripped of a few of their star players in the past, such as Shinji Kagawa, who joined United, as well as, more recently, Mario Gotze and Robert Lewandowski. Which is why a summer move is perhaps more likely, though Reus would be very much worth the wait.
