Man Utd are one of several teams interested in signing West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen, according to reports. The Guardian claim that the Red Devils (along with Chelsea and Liverpool) could take advantage if the Hammers are relegated. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side need to win their final game against Leeds and hope Tottenham lose to Everton in order to stay up. Bowen has still managed to score 10 goals and provide 11 assists this season despite the London club’s difficulties, but United fans on X are not keen on the winger making the switch to Old Trafford: Wanted him at United 4 years ago. Now I believe it’s too late. — KRIGER 🌞🏟️📍 (@Vlad3Draculesti) May 19, 2026 Worn out player man. Shouldn’t go in for this lot. — DrexUnited (@Livetalkfootbal) May 19, 2026 We need an LW and they are busy scouting an RW when we have 2? — Rσɯαɳ Nԃʅσʋυ ♱🫀 (@theoutsid3r10) May 19, 2026 Lies 🙄, Bowen is 30 this year, this board does not buy players over 26!!! — EileenMU (@eileenmufam1) May 19, 2026 Not for me overrated — Chris Roberts (@ChrisRo57337658) May 19, 2026 Please No — Fricky❤️🇬🇭 (@Frickydicky10) May 19, 2026 Bowen’s age is an issue The fact that the England international will turn 30 later this year could potentially pose a barrier to the move, as supporters rightly point out. A lot will depend on how much Bowen costs. If West Ham are prepared to let him go for a reasonable fee, then signing him as a squad player is not out of the question. The forward is a consistent performer, and he would provide much more of a goal threat than someone like Amad.

Bowen is by no means the only target under consideration as the Red Devils look to strengthen their forward line this summer. Borussia Dortmund’s Karim Adeyemi has been mentioned as a potential option in recent days, while reports in Italy suggest that the recruitment team have been actively scouting AC Milan’s Rafael Leao.
