After coming second, and with a big summer transfer budget, Manchester United are expected to wrap up a lot of their business in the coming weeks.
The first two signings expected by Manchester United supporters are Fred and Toby Alderweireld.
Fred is a Brazilian defensive midfielder, who has been linked with Manchester City but it looks like Manchester United have won the race.
Talks have been taking place between Shakhtar Donetsk and Manchester United, with an Instagram hint exciting supporters of the Red Devils today.

Manchester United club photographer Craig Norwood has started following Fred on Instagram.
It would be easy to scoff at this transfer news, but Craig Norwood has an incredible record when it comes to transfers.
Norwood simply does not state transfer rumours, or hint at Manchester United transfers, if he doesn’t think they will happen.
See some examples here:
Brazilian Fred is a very highly rated midfielder and will provide steel and power next to Nemanja Matic next season.
Whether Fred plays regularly for Brazil at the World Cup remains to be seen, with the likes of Fernandinho and Casemiro in Tite’s squad.
Manchester United fans will be encouraged that their club appears to be doing business very early.
