Dwight Yorke names the young star Manchester United should sign to create 'buzz'

According to Dwight Yorke, Manchester United needs to regain the buzz of years past, and signing Jamal Musiala would help accomplish that.

The Red Devils are expected to make changes to the squad this summer under owner Jim Ratcliffe, and Yorke believes the club should make a splash for the 21-year-old Germany international.

Speaking to Best Payout Online Slots, Yorke explained that he wants to see United get younger next season and that a Musiala signing would be reminiscent of the big transfers common at Old Trafford earlier in the century.

"Sir Jim Ratcliffe needs to focus on signing players as a structure rather than an individual who can take you to success," Yorke said. 

"I think Man United have to start at [Everton defender] Jarrad Branthwaite and try to lower the average age of the squad to around 25 years old.

"Obviously, keep the experience of Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes in the team, but the rest of the team should be young and developing.

"Unless Man United can bring in a world-class signing that creates a buzz in the atmosphere, like signing Jamal Musiala. That could be enough to give the team the belief to achieve success.

"But, I don't see Man United make those amazing signings anymore, Paul Pogba was probably the last time I said 'Wow, what a signing'.

"Man United used to sign Wayne Rooney, Jaap Stam, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Robin van Persie, and even me, people were excited about those names and now they're spending £85m on Antony.

"Man United need to sign a player like Musiala that can create that buzz."
