Manchester United have started arguably the most pivotal transfer window in their modern history as INEOS have taken control of football operations at Old Trafford.
With a new structure above manager Erik ten Hag, the Red Devils have already seen significant changes this summer.
The Dutchman survived a two-week end-of-season review from the higher-ups at the club so he will be in charge of the team on the opening game of the 2024/25 Premier League campaign.
He has even signed a contract extension at Old Trafford after guiding the club to FA Cup glory in May.
Off the pitch, there is now great hope with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS looking to oversee drastic improvement on the pitch following their arrival earlier this year.
No more Ed Woodward, and hopefully a structure which can set up the club for future success. Expect many players to leave and several to come in during the summer transfer window.
Our live Man Utd transfer blog brings you all the latest news surrounding the Red Devils, including exclusives from our own reporters as well as checking out what the other big names are saying (including the likes of Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein).
There are expected to be many moves this summer with players coming and going, and the Old Trafford rumour mill is already in full swing.

United and Chelsea on high alert as Maignan talks stall
Chelsea and Manchester United have been put on high alert as Mike Maignan's contract talks with Milan have hit a wall.
The Frenchman is recognised as one of the best goalkeepers in Europe and was previously in talks to extend his stay at San Siro, though those talks have since stalled.
Both Chelsea and United are on the lookout for a new keeper this summer and €40 million could be enough to secure a deal. (Caught Offside)
Rashford's DREAM move
Marcus Rashford dreams of a move to Barcelona this summer.
The England international is currently on loan at Aston Villa from Man Utd and it is believed that he doesn't have a future at Old Trafford under Ruben Amorim.
Though a move to Barca is extremely unlikely due to the club's financial woes, Camp Nou is Rashford's number one destination of choice. (talkSPORT)
Offensive rebuild required
A transfer budget gamechanger for Man Utd
The level of spending and the level of player brought into Man Utd this summer will depend on whether the club qualifies for the Champions League, according to Ruben Amorim.
Ahead of the Europa League fixture against Lyon on Thursday, he was asked about his transfer window plans. He responded: “It is more about the budget.That is important when you are planning the next season. Champions League can change everything.”
United can only qualify for the Champions League if they win the Europa League.
Even a save specialist would be nice
Man Utd back in for Xavi Simons
One of Man Utd's dream signings this summer would be Xavi Simons.
United have long been linked with the Dutch international, who signed permanently for RB Leipzig from PSG for an initial fee of €50 million last summer.
The Red Devils would need to qualify for the Champions League via a Europa League win to make the move possible, even if it remains unlikely. (MailSport)
Mora blow expected
Man Utd appear to be having trouble convincing young stars to come to Old Trafford as another wonderkid, Rodrigo Mora, looks set to give the club the cold shoulder.
The 17-year-old has impressed for the Portuguese giants this summer but had been linked with a move away, with Man Utd and PSG said to be keen.
However, he will commit his future to Porto by signing a new deal that will increase his release clause to €100 million. This news comes for United after Geovany Quenda of Sporting CP turned the Red Devils down to agree a move to Chelsea.
The BATTLE for Sesko
Is he what the club needs right now?
Delap prefers Arsenal or Chelsea to Man Utd
Ipswich will be relegated from the Premier League before the end of the season and when it is made official, a £30 million relegation clause will activate for Liam Delap.
The player will be a wanted man this summer as half the league is interested in a deal, but it is believed he wants to play in Europe which has alerted the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea.
That preference also rules out the possibility of a move to Man Utd - unless they win the Europa League. (Daily Express)
Surprise replacement for Onana?
Man Utd could surprisingly turn to Aaron Ramsdale if they sell Andre Onana.
The current United stopper was dropped from the squad for the weekend loss against Newcastle after two major mistakes in the Europa League match against Lyon.
Should he be sold, the Red Devils will need a new keeper, and Ramsdale has emerged as a shock target after another relegation, this time with Southampton. (Sun)
Huijsen to STAY in the Premier League
Should Dean Huijsen be sold by Bournemouth, it will likely be to another Premier League club.
The young Spaniard has impressed with the Cherries this season and has a release clause of €60 million which many clubs believe could prove to be a bargain due to his age and profile.
Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are interested, but GiveMeSport reports that Huijsen is likely to stay in England, with Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man Utd all keen on a deal. The report states that Chelsea and Liverpool are leading the race.
German competition for Dibling
United look to Porto star to solve goalkeeper woes
It is looking increasingly likely that Andre Onana will be sold by Manchester United this summer following a series of high-profile errors this season.
His horror performance against Lyon last week led to him being dropped from the United squad for the weekend's match against Newcastle.
Should United move him on, they will look to Porto's Diogo Costa as a replacement. (Nicolo Shira)
