Manchester United could be on the verge of announcing four transfers after two surprise results at the World Cup. Michael Carrick is reshaping the squad ahead of his first full Premier League campaign in charge, aiming to add quality as United prepare for their return to the Champions League next season.
Ederson Deal Cleared After Brazil Exit
United have already agreed a deal to sign Atalanta playmaker Ederson, but he was awaiting a medical at Old Trafford while Brazil remained in the World Cup. However, Norway shocked the world by dumping Brazil out of the tournament over the weekend, with an Erling Haaland brace doing the damage. It has been widely reported that Ederson's move to United would only be confirmed when he was no longer with the national team. As a result, it could only be a matter of days before he officially joins the Red Devils on a reported five-year contract.
Summerville Move Accelerated
United could also be gearing up to confirm the signing of Crysencio Summerville, with the Netherlands being knocked out by Morocco on penalties. Summerville impressed during the World Cup, scoring two goals and providing two assists in four appearances for the Oranje. Reports have claimed that United are keen on signing the 24-year-old as they look to strengthen on the left-hand side. Now, with the Netherlands out of the World Cup, their interest could move quickly over the coming days.
Free Agent Goalkeeper Targeted
United have also been tipped to sign a new goalkeeper to provide competition for Senne Lammens between the sticks next season. They are weighing up a potential move for Karl Darlow, who is available on a free transfer with his deal at Leeds United running out. It means the Red Devils would be able to sign the Welshman without entering club negotiations, potentially allowing a deal to be struck fairly quickly.
Outgoings: Bayindir Could Leave
In terms of outgoings, it has been suggested that Altay Bayindir could be allowed to leave in search of regular first-team football elsewhere. He is said to be interesting several clubs in his native Turkey, and it would not be a surprise to see him depart Old Trafford in the near future.
