3 cheap investments Manchester United should make in the summer

#2 Toby Alderwiereld (£25 million)

The Spurs defender should be considered to partner Victor Lindelof at the club next season

Toby Alderwiereld is a talented player who can either play at the heart of the defence or also double up as a right-back for his team. He is good with the ball and makes his presence felt in attack scenarios. He is also a leader on the field with good knowledge about the game.

The Belgian's release clause is £25 million which needs to be triggered to sign him in the summer. With the transfer price of defenders also on the rise in recent times, Manchester United should spend this money on him so that their defensive problems can be solved to an extent.

Multi-functional players are required to help Solskjaer play in his way, and Toby Alderwiereld is such a player. He can adapt himself accordingly at the back and can be useful in set-pieces as well. In attacking situations, the Belgian is an asset and hence would do well under the Manchester United boss.
