Manchester United's ins and outs - summer 2021

ARRIVALS

The first of four signings was signalled on 1 July when an agreement to acquire Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund was announced. The England winger's transfer was finalised 22 days later.

The Reds confirmed the arrival of experienced goalkeeper Tom Heaton, on a free transfer from Aston Villa on 2 July, for his second spell at the club.

United added four-time Champions League winner Raphael Varane to the squad on 14 August, with the former Real Madrid centre-back being introduced to a packed Old Trafford shortly before his new team-mates demolished Leeds United 5-1 in the club's opening Premier League fixture.
