Former Manchester United captain Rio Ferdinand has said that signing Kylian Mbappe and Erling Braut Haaland this summer would still not be enough for the club to win the Premier League next season.
The Red Devils were knocked out of the Champions League on Tuesday evening courtesy of a 1-0 loss to Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their last-16 tie at Old Trafford.
Ferdinand has claimed that the club's problems are so deep-rooted at the moment that even signing Paris Saint-Germain's Mbappe and Borussia Dortmund's Haaland - two of the best players in world football - would not be enough to help the club return to winning ways on a regular basis.
"Atletico have a manager who can put a team out to do the job. Everything is about the team. For Man United, the season is over. It was really a reflection of what the season have been like. They looked alright in moments but it's Jekyll and Hyde moments. You see the good, the bad and the ugly. We didn't see enough quality," Ferdinand told BT Sport.
"The difference between the teams was that Atletico had a group of reliable men who would do anything the manager asked them and worked together. Whereas the other team (United) is looking and saying 'who's going to pull us out of this, the magic trick out of the hat.
"It's not about the team getting through it but individuals. If you bring in Mbappe and Haaland this summer, United aren't winning the league. It doesn't matter who they bring in. The revamp needs to be from the top down."
Former Man United midfielder Paul Scholes has urged the Red Devils to attempt to bring in Chelsea's Thomas Tuchel or Tottenham Hotspur's Antonio Conte as their new head coach.
