He even made a Champions League appearance after coming off the bench to replace Juan Mata in a group-stage game against Wolfsburg. He has also won three PL titles with United’s U-21 team and a third-tier title with Wigan. Indeed, he truly has a lot on his resume, as Reynolds would be keen on such a player.

Phil Parkinson prepared to play the waiting game to attain new signings

As stated by The Leader, Parkinson disclosed that they have engaged in conversations with numerous players and clubs. However, he is ready to wait on the new signings and is in no rush. “To get better players than the ones we have already got is really tough. We are best off waiting for the players we really want, knowing that the squad is strong as it stands.”

Additionally, Parkinson acknowledged the proficiency of the existing team. He added, “If two or three players become available which we want and which we feel will really improve the squad, then, of course, we will go all out to get them. We have targeted the ones we want and we are in discussions with those clubs, but at this time of the year, things take time for many different reasons.” It seems the 55-year-old understands that patience is the key to making new signings. It remains to be seen how they manage to pull off their transfer targets.
