Manchester United legend Wes Brown has urged his former club to sign two Premier League stars during the summer transfer window.

The Red Devils have endured a tough season under Erik ten Hag as they finished eighth in the Premier League and were knocked out at the group stage of the Champions League.

However, United have the chance to end their season on a high as they take on rivals Manchester City in the Emirates FA Cup final at Wembley on Saturday.

Ahead of the match, former United defender Brown spoke exclusively to SPORTbible, picking out two Premier League stars his former club should target this summer.

He said: “I'm very realistic and I'm the sort of person that always thinks about you know, who's already done it in the Premier League?

“I think we need some really solid lads from other teams who have done really well. I would say Michael Olise from Crystal Palace, I think he’s exciting. He's got this rawness about him, he doesn't look afraid of anything.”

Brown added: “And I think the obvious one is someone in defence. And Jarrad Branthwaite for me, is a young lad and he's still learning, but he's big, strong and quick. And I just feel that he would help out tremendously.”

Brown was also tasked with surprising two United fans who embarked on a journey from Old Trafford to the Emirates airport check-in desk in the quickest time in a bid to win tickets to the Emirates FA Cup final.

Speaking about his involvement in the project, Brown said: “I mean it's brilliant, meeting Adam and Alfie at Hotel Football in Manchester to start them off on a little journey to try and get some tickets for the Emirates FA Cup Final.

“I mean as a kid that's all that was on the TV, we played games in the park related to the Emirates FA Cup, it was always a special day the final so it's brilliant that they've been able to get to the game and go on a little journey.”

Brown has backed his former side to do the business against City as he predicts United to win 2-1.

Emirates has challenged fans to travel from their favourite team’s stadium to the Emirates airport check-in desk in the quickest time. Along the way they met footballing legends, answered fan-focused quizzes and harnessed the need for speed.
