Every single Manchester United transfer deal for the January 2026 winter transfer window can be found here.
There was no major movement from Manchester United in this winter transfer window, with the club deciding to focus on spending in the summer.
There was speculation United could spend big on a midfielder; meanwhile, an injury to Patrick Dorgu also raised the possibility of a late deal for winger.
The club decided that with none of the long-term targets available, there was no appetite to make a short-term move, with only 14 games remaining in all competitions.
United’s focus was on departures, with several loan deals re-arranged, along with some new loans, and a handful of permanent departures.
It is worth noting that there is still a possibility that United could loan out further players, with foreign transfer windows still open. The Swiss window is one of these, with partner club Lausanne a possible destination.
Below is every incoming and outgoing for United in the transfer window.
