Martin Keown believes Manchester United should prioritise replacing Ashley Young in the upcoming transfer window.
Young has been at the club since 2011 after joining from Aston Villa for a reported fee of between £15-20 million.
He’s made 235 appearances for the Manchester side and has cemented himself as a solid performer over recent seasons down the right flank.
However, given he is now 33 years of age, Keown has urged the Red Devils to sign a new right-back this summer.
‘We know he [Solskjaer] will be given money to spend,’ Keown said on Match of the Day.
‘Central defence is certainly a position, Herrera hasn’t signed his contract in midfield, perhaps a midfielder, and definitely a right-back.
‘Ashley Young is getting on in years so definitely a right-back. They’re not far away.
‘This is a team in the quarter-finals of the Champions League so it’s not wholesale changes but it’s going to be expensive.’
United’s next fixture is against Wolves in the Premier League on April 2.
