Assane Diao (Como)
April 2025
Manchester United scouted 19-year-old winger Assane Diao during Como vs Empoli after his 5-goal breakout start in Serie A.
Signed from Real Betis in January, Diao’s Senegal debut and sharp form have drawn interest, but Como plan to keep him until at least 2026.
Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United)
March 2025
Ruben Amorim is determined to retain Bruno Fernandes at Manchester United despite strong interest from Real Madrid, who are tracking the midfielder as a £90m replacement for Luka Modric.
While Amorim wants Fernandes to stay, United’s financial situation may force a sale. The Portuguese star has delivered 16 goals and 16 assists this season, but could be tempted by Madrid’s elite-level ambitions.
Gonçalo Inácio (Sporting CP)
March 2025
Manchester United are planning a summer move for Sporting defender Gonçalo Inácio, with head coach Ruben Amorim eager to reunite with his former player.
United have tracked Inácio for years and now have Amorim pushing for his signing. Sporting will only sell for €45 million. Inácio’s profile fits United’s new youth-first recruitment strategy and Amorim’s tactical plans.
Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United)
March 2025
Real Madrid are considering a major summer move for Bruno Fernandes as a successor to Luka Modric, with Manchester United expected to demand a club-record £90m fee.
Madrid scouts have monitored Fernandes all season. United may consider a sale due to Premier League PSR (Profit and Sustainability Rules) pressures despite reluctance to part with their captain.
Francisco Trincao (Sporting CP)
March 2025
Ronaldo has reportedly offered support to Amorim’s transfer plans, as Manchester United target Sporting winger Francisco Trincao for a summer move.
United are preparing for a squad overhaul, and Amorim wants to reunite with Trincao. However, Sporting plan to demand over £50m — exceeding his release clause — complicating the deal.
Scott McTominay (Napoli)
March 2025
Former United forward Joe Jordan criticized the club’s decision to sell McTominay, who is thriving at Napoli with 7 goals and 4 assists in his debut Serie A season.
After a £25.4m move last summer, McTominay has become a key player for the Serie A contenders, while Man United struggle in 13th place, highlighting what Jordan called poor judgment from the club.
Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig)
March 2025
Arsenal are leading the race to sign Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, who prefers a Premier League move amid strong interest from several top European clubs.
With a €70m release clause, Sesko’s preference for Champions League football puts Arsenal ahead, especially as Man United may miss out on qualification unless they win the Europa League.
Xavi Simons (Manchester United)
March 2025
Manchester United are tracking RB Leipzig playmaker Xavi Simons but may need to sell players to fund a move.
A deal would cost over €50m. Manager Ruben Amorim is focusing on other positions unless sales occur.
Jobe Bellingham (Sunderland)
March 2025
RB Leipzig have begun talks for Sunderland’s Jobe Bellingham, though they consider the asking price too high.
Leipzig are among several clubs monitoring the 19-year-old midfielder, who is expected to leave this summer. Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United have previously been linked.
Victor Osimhen (Napoli)
April 2025
Nottingham Forest are eyeing a move for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, currently on loan at Galatasaray, ahead of a competitive summer window.
Forest are reportedly ready to meet Osimhen’s £400,000-per-week demands if they qualify for the Champions League, despite strong competition from PSG, Liverpool, and Manchester United.
