Ferdinand urges Man Utd to sign Madrid's Tchouameni

Manchester United need to strengthen their squad for next campaign as they will be playing in the Champions League. The board are looking for a striker to bolster the attack but they also want to sign a midfielder.

Rio Ferdinand told 'Vibe with Five' that the Red Devils should sign Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni and said the Frenchman's arrival would be "a massive improvement".

"You've got Bruno [Fernandes], you've got Eriksen who can play in the 8, Fred and McTominay are the two back-up ones. If we can get a more dynamic 8 who can gets us goals and assists to add to what Bruno is doing," he began.

"And also to take the ball and dictate a game. Eriksen does the dictating part brilliantly well. Calm, cool under pressure, takes the sting out of games, he's been great I think. But if you want to go another level, you need someone who is better than him.

"That's going to be a big area for the team, it would improve us massively. In midfield, you know who I would go and get? I would go try get Tchouameni. He is the one who doesn’t play, he is the odd man out at the minute. Massive improvement," he concluded.
