Man Utd are in the process of rebuilding their midfield to replace the likes of Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte. However, it has been a tricky summer as they have missed out on Elliot Anderson to Manchester City and Mateus Fernandes to Tottenham Hotspur.
United had agreed a deal for Atalanta’s Ederson, but it was called off after he failed a medical. Instead, the Red Devils have signed Andrey Santos from Chelsea for £48m plus £2m in add-ons and also activated Youri Tielemans’ £35m release clause at Aston Villa.
Wolves star Gomes and Manu Kone of Roma are both on United’s shortlist as they seek further reinforcements in midfield, but Liverpool are threatening at least one hijack.
