John McGinn would suit Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick's style of play... but is the Aston Villa star the right type of player the Red Devils need as they desperately look to bolster their midfield?

It has been clear for some time that Manchester United need to strengthen their midfield if they are to challenge for trophies going forward.

The Red Devils have regularly lost the midfield battle in big games this season and that is a big part of the reason why they sit 24 points off the top of the table after just 20 games, in a season where they were expected to mount a challenge for the title.

Declan Rice, Jude Bellingham, Denis Zakaria and Amadou Haidara are all names that have been linked with moves to Old Trafford over recent months.
