Erik ten Hag currently has a number of Manchester United players away on international duty as he prepares for a trip to Everton next Sunday.
The 1-0 win over Luton left the Red Devils in the top six of the Premier League, despite having lost five times in the top-flight already this season. But the trip to Goodison Park has now taken on extra significance, for the home side at least, after they were deducted 10 points on Friday for financial irregularities.
In the meantime, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is nearing a deal that will see him own a 25 percent stake in the club. The INEOS chief has already been reported to be putting transfer plans in place, with fans now waiting on an official announcement.
