According to Manchester United team reporter Samuel Luckhurst, on May 11, the reporter further updated Manchester United's signings this summer and also provided information on target players.
Manchester United hopes to make at least five signings next season to strengthen the lineup. The plan drawn up by Manchester United is to introduce three players at the central axis of the midfield, a left back and a backup center. In addition, it is also possible to recruit a new goalkeeper to support No. 1 goalkeeper Ramens.
Manchester United has cast a very wide net in terms of midfield signings. Many players who play in the Premier League have entered their field of vision. Elliot Anderson, Tonali, Adam Walton and Baleba have all received corresponding attention. At the same time, Manchester United also held informal dialogues and exchanges with representatives of Wolves midfielder Joao Gomez. Mateusz- Fernandez has also been appreciated and recognized. Wilcox had already paid attention to him when he was the director of football at Southampton. If West Ham United suffers relegation, he is very likely to make a transfer. The 21-year-old Fernandez is represented by Mendes' Gestifute agency. Manchester United signed Yoro and Ugarte from Mendes in 2024.
Chuameni may enter the market at a time of discord within Real Madrid. He had previously clashed with Valverde on the training ground. The quarrel caused Valverde to suffer a head injury. Real Madrid lost 2-0 to Barcelona on Sunday. Barcelona locked up the league title, leaving Real Madrid with no results for the season. The embarrassing situation has become even worse. Manchester United had the opportunity to sign the 26-year-old Chuameni in 2021, but they prioritized the transactions of Sancho and Varane. Manchester United's goal was to sign at least two midfielders. If Ugarte was sold, they were also prepared to raise funds to sign a third.
This season, the 25-year-old Ugarte started 10 times. During this period, Manchester United lost 6 games and won only 1 game in which he started. According to the Premier League's profitability and sustainable development rules, if Manchester United wants to avoid losses, it must recover a fee of 25.8 million pounds for the Uruguay international. After Manchester United's success in last summer's transfer window, it has mainly targeted players in the 22- to 26-year-old age group.
