“We are strategizing to acquire a significant portion of our players from Bayern Munich as they possess the caliber of high-quality players we desire.” – Manchester United expresses interest in two players from Bayern Munich, marking the initiation of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s revolution with the disclosed intention to enhance the overall quality of Manchester United’s squad.

Manchester United is reportedly in discussions about potential loan deals for two players from Bayern Munich during the January transfer window. As Erik ten Hag’s team currently occupies the eighth position in the Premier League and has not made any transfers this month, there is ongoing movement with players leaving on loan, including Donny van De Beek, Jadon Sancho, and Hannibal Mejbri.

The recent confirmation of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s investment marks a new phase for the club, as he aims to revitalize Manchester United’s standing in world football, seeking to overcome a decade of mismanagement under the Glazer family. Despite poor on-field performance this season, including underwhelming performances from summer signings and key player injuries, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is working towards reshaping the team’s dynamics.

According to The Athletic, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is not willing to write off the current season for Manchester United, despite the team facing issues. He is eager to assist United in qualifying for the next season’s Champions League, as this achievement would aid compliance with Financial Fair Play regulations. The limited availability of resources explains the lack of new arrivals at Old Trafford. Internally, discussions about loan moves for Bayern Munich’s Matthijs De Ligt and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting have been mentioned.

De Ligt has experienced a decline in favor under Bayern manager Thomas Tuchel, making only five starts in the Bundesliga. Tuchel has shown a preference for the defensive pairing of Dayot Upamecano and Kim-Min jae. The recent arrival of Eric Dier from Tottenham Hotspur could further reduce De Ligt’s playing time. Notably, the Netherlands international has previously collaborated with Erik ten Hag at Ajax, reaching the Europa League final together in 2017.

Choupo-Moting currently serves as the third-choice striker at the Allianz Arena, playing behind Harry Kane and Mathys Tel. His contract is set to expire in the summer, and Bayern Munich will not impede his departure if he opts to leave.

Manchester United has faced challenges in scoring this season, with Scott McTominay leading the team with five goals in the Premier League. Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho have three goals each, while Rasmus Hojlund has scored two in his last two games. Anthony Martial has contributed one goal, and Antony is yet to open his account. United is scheduled to resume action against Newport County in the FA Cup fourth round on Sunday.
