Man Utd Transfers: 8 Dream Signings To Win The Fans Back
4. Mehdi Benatia
His separate feet are said to cost 30 million apiece by Roma chiefs, but Man United just might be forced to shell out in the final fortnight of the transfer window. Speculation has been rife surrounding the Moroccan's future this summer, but any concrete offers are yet to materialise. A very complete defender, equally comfortable aerially or with the ball at his feet, Benatia co-provided the base of the Giallorossi's title challenge last season with Leandro Castan. The Serie A club have set an understandably high price for their key centre-back, but Ed Woodward has been known to imply that the Red Devils have plenty of money at their disposal. Following two impressive campaigns in the Italian top flight, it might be time for the 27-year-old to face a new challenge as he heads into his prime. Intelligent in his reading of the game and given the luxury of two defenders either side of him in a back three, Benatia would also have the luxury of stepping out when required - as well as having the height to compete in the air. Arguably the hottest defensive property on the market, signing the Morocco international would show Man United's intent.
