The Senegal star joined Marseille on the eve of the season in a deal that shocked many supporters and left a gaping hole in Paul Heckingbottom’s squad. Sander Berge, who moved to Burnley a week later, has since been replaced by Coventry’s Gus Hamer and the manager has been promised the funds from Ndiaye’s deal to strengthen his squad.
United’s recruitment stuff are working tirelessly to secure reinforcements before September 1’s transfer deadline but, in the meantime, we asked Blades supporters who they would realistically like to see targeted as Ndiaye’s replacement - here are the results, with some less serious or achievable than others...

He adds that Ndiaye’s replacement “needs to be a marquee signing to give the players and fan base a lift.”](https://www.thestar.co.uk/jpim-static/image/2023/08/15/16/GettyImages-1556942587.jpg?crop=3:2&width=800)

A bit of nostalgia and mischief from Blades fan @James59263500 in this suggestion but what a prospect it would be - imagine what that pair, together in their prime, would be worth today? | Sportimage
