Man Utd line up AFCON forward Sinayoko on free transfer for 2026

December 2025
United are in serious talks with Auxerre forward Lassine Sinayoko, whose deal expires next summer, aiming to secure a pre-contract for a free transfer at the end of the 2025-26 season while he features for Mali at AFCON. Having already added Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko, Amorim still wants more attacking depth and values Sinayoko’s versatility across the front line. United are now focused on finalising personal terms this month, viewing the Auxerre striker as a low-cost way to deepen their long-term forward options.
