Manchester United are making serious moves in the market - with talks now ‘advanced’ over a blockbuster deal for Bruno Guimaraes and Fabrizio Romano revealing a fresh twist in Enzo Fernandez’s future.

With Jude Bellingham, Pau Cubarsi and more big names also on the radar, here’s the latest on all the major transfer stories lighting up Europe

Bruno Guimaraes to Man Utd: Advanced talks over €80m transfer confirmed

Manchester United are in “advanced talks” to sign Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United, according to Reuters.

The Red Devils are ready to pay €80 million for the Brazil international midfielder, who has been personally recommended to the board by Casemiro.

Bruno is seen to possess an ideal combination of leadership and experience that the Red Devils will lack without his compatriot.

FootballTransfers has explored why this is such a promising transfer for Man Utd.

Man Utd ready to pay up to €150m for Jude Bellingham

Man Utd are also linked with a record-breaking move for Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham, according to reports in Spain.

Known to be on the hunt for a star central midfielder, Fichajes reports that the Red Devils are linked with a stunning €120m bid for Bellingham in a deal that would shatter their current transfer record. They could even be willing to go as high as €150m.

Bellingham would be a like-for-like replacement for Bruno Fernandes should he depart in the summer.

Arsenal eye Barcelona prodigy Cubarsi

Arsenal are one of the clubs keeping an eye on the future of Barcelona star Pau Cubarsi, who has a €500 million release clause attached to his contract at Camp Nou.

Already considered to be one of the best centre-backs in the world, the 19-year-old is being monitored by Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Manchester City, according to CaughtOffside.

All these sides are monitoring Cubarsi’s contract talks with Barcelona and are ready to pounce should the Catalan side slip.
