The summer transfer window was a big one for Manchester United as they managed to reinforce the biggest problem areas in their squad.

Article continues under the video

With a new structure above manager Erik ten Hag, the Red Devils saw significant changes under INEOS in the summer.

Firstly, Ten Hag survived a two-week end-of-season review from the higher-ups at the club, and he even signed a contract extension at Old Trafford after guiding the club to FA Cup glory in May.

Off the pitch, there is now great hope with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS overseeing drastic improvements in the market.

They signed Manuel Ugarte, Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, Joshua Zirkzee and Noussair Mazraoui in the summer, while Sekou Kone was brought in as one for the future.

This would be HUGE

Mbeumo bid made

Man Utd have tested Brentford's resolve with a huge bid for Bryan Mbeumo.

The forward only has just over a year left on his contract but United are still prepared to pay around £54 million for his services.

This deal may depend on Man Utd's qualification for the Champions League, however. (Fichajes)

Cunha deal very close

Man Utd are close to confirming the transfer of Matheus Cunha from Wolves.

Fabrizio Romano wrote on X: “Manchester United are now closing in on Matheus Cunha deal! The Brazilian has accepted the project as agreement on personal terms is now being finalised, almost done. Final details to sort between all parties involved… and then, here we go.”

The Red Devils will trigger Cunha's €74 million (£62.5m) release clause.

United officially approach Martinez

United have made an offer to sign Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa.

The Argentine catalysed speculation about his future on Friday when he started crying after the club's final home match of the season.

He still has four years left on his deal at Villa but could be moved on as the club look to raise funds for a transfer kitty, while he is also on a hefty wage. (DSports)

The THREE players Rooney wants at Man Utd

Wayne Rooney has a list of three players he wants Man Utd to sign this summer.

"I’d probably sign David de Gea, Manchester United have missed him and I think he could still do a very good job. Victor Osimhen as a number nine. Marc Guehi from Palace," the club legend told Amazon.

How United can get Bellingham

Huijsen set to snub Premier League for Real Madrid

Bournemouth defender Dean Huijsen is set to join Real Madrid.

The Spain international is a wanted man following a superb season for the Cherries and has been linked with a number of Premier League clubs including Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea and Liverpool.

However, BBC Sport reports that Huijsen is on the cusp of a £50 million switch to Los Blancos.

Arsenal lowball Man Utd target Gyokeres

Chelsea will come back in for Garnacho

Chelsea will look to sign a right-footed left-winger this summer and one of the players they will target is Alejandro Garnacho.

The Man Utd winger was linked with the Blues in January but no deal materalised, though he is still expected to leave Old Trafford as United believe he could fetch a decent fee.

Also on Chelsea's shortlist for that position is Dortmund's Jamie Gittens and Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers. (BBC Sport)

Liverpool in for Man Utd target Lookman

Liverpool are looking to swap Federico Chiesa for Ademola Lookman in a player-plus-cash deal with Atalanta.

Earlier this campaign, Lookman was named African Football of the Year following his superb performances with La Dea which included a career highlight hat-trick in the Europa League final against Leverkusen.

He has been strongly linked with a return to the Premier League, however, with Chelsea, Newcastle, Liverpool, Man Utd and Arsenal among the suitors. For a cash only deal, he'll cost about €60 million. (Quotidiano Sportivo)

Huge Xavi Simons bombshell

Man Utd have been handed a boost in their pursuit of Xavi Simons as Fabrizio Romano has confirmed the Dutch international will leave RB Leipzig.

“Xavi Simons’ decision has been made: he’s ready to leave RB Leipzig this summer," Romano wrote on X.

“Plan confirmed as reported in recent months, he’s ready for a new chapter with top Premier League clubs and Bayern all attentive to his situation.

“RB Leipzig are aware of the player’s plan.”

United will sign Matheus Cunha soon

Man Utd will soon sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Ruben Amorim will oversee a squad overhaul this summer and a number of forwards will be signed.

United are set to pay around €80 million for his services.

Gyokeres price DROPS

Several clubs have been put on high alert as Sporting CP have reportedly dropped their asking price for Viktor Gyokeres.

The Swedish goal machine is a wanted man for the summer transfer window, with the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool and Barcelona linked with a swoop.

Sporting previously demanded around £80 million for Gyokeres, but the Mirror reports that he is now available for £60m.

United watching Hudson-Odoi

Man Utd are looking at a potential move for Callum Hudson-Odoi.

The former Chelsea winger has been key for Nottingham Forest this season and their return to qualification for European football.

He has five goals and two assists in 29 matches for Forest this campaign. (Sky Sports)
