Following progress on a deal for Bryan Mbeumo, Manchester United and INEOS are reportedly now in contact with a standout player from Paris Saint-Germain regarding a possible transfer this summer.
INEOS` Plans Post-Mbeumo Deal
With Matheus Cunha already secured and Mbeumo awaiting medical clearance, Manchester United appears poised to finally address their attacking issues. Potentially moving past struggling players like Joshua Zirkzee and Rasmus Hojlund, Ruben Amorim could have two additional clinical forwards available next season.
A primary focus appears to be finding a new goalkeeper to replace Andre Onana. The current United No.1 has frankly faced difficulties since arriving, and alternatives like Emiliano Martinez or Diogo Costa are reportedly being considered.
Furthermore, Sir Jim Ratcliffe remains focused on acquiring a midfielder. Recent reports indicate Manchester United are keen on Club Brugge`s Ardon Jashari, aiming to offer Amorim another significant reinforcement.
Reports suggest there`s still room in the budget for another major signing this summer, with Manchester United potentially looking to intercept Arsenal`s pursuit of Real Madrid`s Rodrygo, which would send a strong message.
However, the Brazilian would be costly at £85m, and competition from Arsenal might lead Manchester United to look towards Champions League winners PSG this summer.
Manchester United Contacts Zaire-Emery
According to TeamTalk, Manchester United has initiated preliminary discussions regarding a potential summer transfer for PSG`s Warren Zaire-Emery. The gifted 19-year-old is considered a remarkable prospect, among Europe`s top young talents. However, questions remain about United`s readiness to meet his €100m (£85m) valuation.
Having received significant acclaim, analyst Ben Mattinson described Zaire-Emery as `special,` asserting that the young midfielder possesses talent comparable to Kylian Mbappe during his spell at AS Monaco.
Since then, the 19-year-old`s game has continued to develop, contributing to PSG`s Champions League victory with 13 appearances. With three league titles and a Champions League medal already, Zaire-Emery is clearly destined for a remarkable career. It is yet to be determined if that future lies at Old Trafford, however.
