Failed Manchester United bidder Sheikh Jassim was reportedly eyeing a big-money triple deal for three French players if he bought the club. It is reported that had the Qatari royal been successful with his \u00a35billion offer to buy the Premier League club, he would have pumped hundreds of millions into the playing squad to ensure it caught up with their domestic and European rivals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Despite reports that the Glazers were set to sell United, the siblings still funded a mega \u00a3150m summer transfer splurge. The addition of goalkeeper Andre Onana was part of the spending spree, costing around \u00a343m from Inter Milan. It is unlikely that Sheikh Jassim would have sought to improve the goalkeeping department any time soon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez\u2019s solid partnership might have prompted Sheikh Jassim to postpone a major renovation of United\u2019s defence. Although injuries have limited the amount of time the duo have spent on the pitch together, it is a centre-back pairing that Erik ten Hag seems to back.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The Glazers funded a loan move for Sergio Reguilon in the summer and that deal could have been made permanent by Sheikh Jassim in the summer. But there were few reports suggesting that the Qatari royal was set to spend big on a new back four.\u00a0<\/p>\n READ MORE: <\/strong> Man Utd warned of Salah and Mane problem if they steal top Liverpool chief[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n According to the report by German publication Bild, a trio of French stars might have arrived at Old Trafford under Sheikh Jassim. The first of those was claimed to be Real Madrid talent Eduardo Camavinga.\u00a0<\/p>\n The 20-year-old joined Real Madrid in 2021 but there have already been reports of a move. United would have apparently been one of the interested clubs. Camavinga could have lined up alongside Casemiro and either Mason Mount or Bruno Fernandes.\u00a0<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

There would have been no room for Antony, Jadon Sancho or, likely, \u00a372m summer signing Rasmus Hojlund.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Kylian Mbappe was supposedly set to be the headline arrival of the Qatari takeover. A positive relationship with Paris Saint-Germain\u2019s Qatar Sports Investment owners might have helped a transfer take place.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Kingsley Coman, another France international, might also have joined Ten Hag\u2019s squad, the report claims. The pair would have presumably started in a front three alongside Marcus Rashford despite the big-money signing of Hojlund last summer.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Get every single Sky Sports channel with Sky Stream, Netflix and Sky TV for \u00a346 a month.<\/p>\n You can enjoy all the best Sky has to offer without needing a satellite connection.<\/p>\n Sky Sports also offers all live events from the Premier League and the F1 and more.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you’re already with Sky, you can get the full Sky Sports experience for \u00a322 a month.<\/p>\n You get all the channels you’ll ever need for \u00a318 a month in time for all the top matches to take place in 2023.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you need a brand new TV and want to watch the best sporting events around on it, Sky is offering a deal where you get Sky Glass, Sky Sports, Sky TV and Netflix for just \u00a334 a month.<\/p>\nDefenders: Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw<\/h2>\n
