  • Manchester United have had a somewhat silent transfer window this summer in terms of arrivals
  • The Red Devils are yet to make any major signing as earlier projected following a frustrating campaign last season
  • Gary Neville has now conceded that he is a bit concerned with his former team's lack of transfer business

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has expressed concern with the club's inactivity in the summer transfer window.

United were projected to have a busy window that would see them make a number of signings to bolster their squad after a frustrating 2021/22 season that saw them end the campaign without a trophy.

However, while the club have offloaded a number of senior players, they are yet to make any significant signings.

According to Sportskeeda, this is in complete contrast to their rivals in the Premier League who are having a busy window.

Liverpool, Manchester City, and Tottenham Hotspur have all made significant signings, with the Reds recently beating United to the signing of Uruguayan star, Darwin Nunez.

On their part, City have already completed the signing of Erling Haaland, with Tottenham snapping up Ivan Perisic from Inter Milan.

Gary Neville concerned with Man United's lack of transfer business

Neville has now taken to social media to express his reservations about United's lack of transfer business.

Whereas the former defender admitted it is still too early in the window to get concerned, he noted that he is afraid his former side are lagging behind in terms of getting deals over the line.

"I know (it's) early in the window, but it’s worrying that United are struggling to get business done. The others seem set and ready, yet United can’t get moving," Neville tweeted.
"(Erik ten Hag) needs his group together asap to mould them. Bringing them in late will only make it harder for him! (Hopefully) it happens soon," he added.

Darwin Nunez explains Man United snub

Earlier, Sports Brief reported Darwin Nunez has finally opened up on his decision to join Liverpool despite interest from several European clubs including Manchester United.

The 22-year-old shot into prominence after a blistering run of form with Benfica where he netted an eyewatering 48 goals in two seasons.

Speaking on his Liverpool transfer, the Uruguay international suggested that joining the Merseysiders was an easy decision to make.

Nunez explained that he is a huge fan of Liverpool's style of play which he contends he can perfectly fit in.
