Paul Pogba remains the Premier League’s most expensive signing, having rejoined United from Juventus in 2016 for just shy of £90million.

United’s major signings have been a touch hit and miss over recent years with the likes of Angel Di Maria flopping and Romelu Lukaku quickly moving on.

Bruno Fernandes and Aaron Wan-Bissaka have faired far better at the Theatre of Dreams and supporters will hope more success stories will come through the door soon.
