Manchester United are reportedly plotting a surprise move for Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Nelson Semedo as they seek to strengthen their backline this summer. The Red Devils are believed to be in the market for a new right-back, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka's future at Old Trafford uncertain.
Semedo Emerges as Top Target
The Portuguese full-back has impressed during his time at Molineux, showcasing his attacking flair and defensive solidity. Semedo's experience in the Premier League and his ability to contribute in both halves of the pitch have reportedly caught the eye of United's recruitment team.
Wan-Bissaka's Potential Departure
The potential arrival of Semedo could signal the end of Wan-Bissaka's stint at Manchester United. The English defender has faced criticism for his limited offensive contributions, and the club may be willing to listen to offers for the former Crystal Palace man.
Transfer Fee and Competition
Wolves are expected to demand a significant fee for their star defender, with reports suggesting a price tag in the region of £35 million. United may face competition from other top European clubs for Semedo's signature, adding another layer of complexity to the potential deal.
The transfer saga is set to develop throughout the summer window as Erik ten Hag looks to reshape his squad ahead of the new Premier League season.
