Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that if the club does not strengthen before the season starts, it will be a difficult campaign for them.

The manager was speaking to MUTV (h/t Daily Star) before the 1-0 friendly against Bayern Munich where he even listed out how our rivals have brought in quality players this season.

Mourinho started off by claiming that our CEO knows what we want and that the club still has a few days to see how things pan out. The former Real Madrid and Chelsea manager then listed out what our rivals have done.

“The other clubs who compete with us are really strong and have fantastic squads, like Chelsea, Tottenham or Manchester City.

“Or they are investing massively like Liverpool, that are buying everything and everybody.

“And if we don’t make our team better it will be a difficult season for us.”

United have seen some transfer activity this season with Diogo Dalot, Lee Grant and Fred coming in. However, in the trio of players, only Fred can be termed as a world-class talent.

The report from the Daily Star also added that United are still looking to bring in either Toby Alderweireld and Harry Maguire but we have only until Thursday to sign them up as the transfer window closes early for English clubs.
