Manchester United are reportedly prepared to spend £80 million to secure their next transfer target as they push ahead with squad improvements under manager Michael Carrick this summer.
Ederson Deal Agreed
A deal to sign Atalanta midfielder Ederson has been agreed, with United expected to bolster their midfield further following Casemiro's departure. Carrick is keen to address the gap ahead of the club's return to the Champions League next season.
Harry Maguire's Summer Plans
Despite missing out on England's World Cup squad, Harry Maguire will stay busy. The 33-year-old defender is set to appear on The Rest is Football podcast during the tournament, hosted by Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer, and Micah Richards from a studio overlooking New York's Times Square.
Maguire was omitted from Thomas Tuchel's 26-man squad, marking the second consecutive international tournament he has missed after injury ruled him out of Euro 2024.
Contact Made for Fernandes
United have reportedly contacted relegated West Ham over a potential deal for midfielder Mateus Fernandes. The 21-year-old Portugal international impressed in his debut season at the London Stadium. West Ham, facing relegation costs of £100 million, have placed an £80 million price tag on Fernandes.
Arsenal have also been linked with the player. United's move follows their £38.8 million agreement for Ederson.
