Manchester United are preparing for a major summer midfield rebuild. Midfield overhaul With Brazilian Casemiro leaving the club and sealing a move to Inter Miami, there is already a significant hole in the middle of the park to fill. The disappointing Manuel Ugarte is also likely to leave this summer, with the club reducing his price to seal an exit. The Red Devils have also agreed a fee with Atalanta for Ederson to bolster their midfield options. The club wants more, though, as they are currently locked in negotiations with West Ham United over Mateus Fernandes. AFC Bournemouth’s Alex Scott and Real Madrid’s Aurélien Tchouaméni are also two players under consideration by Michael Carrick’s side. The Red Devils have also been linked to Southampton’s Shea Charles, but other teams appear to be advancing on a deal. Leeds bid It was reported recently that United’s rivals Leeds had made a bid of £20 million for the Northern Ireland star. Nonetheless, journalist Ben Jacobs has affirmed that this has not been enough to tempt the Saints into a deal. Providing an update to his own post on X over Leeds’ bid, he reported, “Leeds bid was rejected. However, talks are ongoing.” He also clarified, “Southampton’s valuation of Shea Charles is significantly higher” than the £20 million that was offered. Leeds bid was rejected. However, talks are ongoing. Southampton’s valuation of Shea Charles is significantly higher.😇 https://t.co/2By47ny0k0 — Ben Jacobs (@JacobsBen) June 22, 2026 It remains to be seen whether the Red Devils will attempt to get involved in the discussions for the midfielder or continue to work on other targets as June comes to an end in just over a week. Charles has played 76 times for Southampton, scoring six times. He has also represented his nation 35 times, captaining them on occasion.

Door left ajar for United as rival’s bid for international captain knocked back – Ben Jacobs
United make decisive stand on strengthening key position ahead of massive season – report
Manchester United have just come off a successful season, finishing third in the Premier League. Targets Nonetheless, many fans acknowledge that the squad needs significant work if it is to be truly competitive in the league and Europe next year. The club have already agreed a fee for Brazil’s Ederson but that is just the beginning of the midfield rebuild, with strong interest in Mateus Fernandes, Alex Scott and Aurélien Tchouaméni. The midfield is not the only area that United are looking to work on, as they have also been linked to left backs such as Lewis Hall and left wingers like Crysencio Summerville. United may also try to sign someone to replace Altay Bayindir, with Sam Johnstone and Karl Darlow linked to the club. The Red Devils have also been linked with bringing in a veteran back-up striker should Joshua Zirkzee also depart this summer. Defence unlikely this year Journalist Sully has now also provided an update on potential centre-back targets. He reported, “centre back is a position which isn’t as high on the priority list as others, but it is being assessed. When you look at our squad on paper, we have five senior centre backs: Ayden Heaven, Lisandro Martinez, Harry Maguire, Matthjis de Ligt, and Leny Yoro.” Nonetheless, this depth is perhaps not all that it seems, as he explained, “there is an argument to be made that Martinez and Maguire have injury issues and de Ligt is still in rehab, so a centre-back could be needed, but as things stand, other positions are above it.” Sully continued, “names will be assessed, however, but it remains to be seen if we will pursue a move for one when other positions are needed more.” With United targeting so many positions to bolster, it is impossible to fix every problem in one summer. Nonetheless, their plan seems to massively hinge on how well de Ligt and Martinez can stay fit throughout the course of the upcoming season.

Hope we can play together: United target taking World Cup by storm breaks silence on future
Manchester United have been on a roll since the start of 2026, finishing the campaign third in the Premier League table and subsequently qualifying for the Champions League. The Red Devils’ return to the premier European club competition will be a significant boost to their summer plans. The English giants enjoyed a strong run under Michael Carrick, registering 12 wins and just two defeats in 17 matches. However, with European football on offer next season and games set to come thick and fast, United have to invest wisely in the squad. Midfield reinforcements are a priority this summer following Casemiro’s departure , and recent reports suggest that United have already secured the services of Atalanta’s Ederson. Further additions are expected in the middle of the park, but other positions could also be on the agenda before the start of the new campaign. There are reports that the Red Devils want to add more firepower to their attack, but one area INEOS could be tempted to improve is the left-back role. United need succession plan for Luke Shaw Luke Shaw has been impressive at left-back under Carrick, after also catching the eye as a left-sided centre-back under Amorim. However, the Englishman will turn 31 next month and his contract runs until 2027. Although Shaw remained injury-free all season, he has a poor fitness record, which could tempt United to consider options this summer. A recent report relayed by The Peoples Person states that the Red Devils have identified Maxi Araujo as a candidate to strengthen the position this summer. The 26 year old has been in impressive form for Sporting this season, registering seven goals and six assists in 47 games, 42 of which have been starts. Maxi Araujo Stats: 2025/26 Season CompetitionAppearancesStartsGoalsAssistsYellow CardsRed CardsMinutes Played Liga Portugal292554912,215′ UEFA Champions League1111214-982′ Taça de Portugal54-1-1394′ Allianz Cup11—-90′ Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira11—-73′ Total4747761323,754′ Source: Transfermarkt. The Uruguayan’s blistering pace, attacking instincts and work ethic make him a fine long-term replacement for Shaw at the Theatre of Dreams. Araujo is also entering his prime and matches the age profile INEOS have targeted of late. A previous report relayed by The Peoples Person suggests that United have already held talks with the Uruguayan’s entourage. The player is currently with his national team at the FIFA World Cup, where he has registered two goals and one assist in two games, further highlighting his immense quality. Araujo has now provided an update on his future. United frontrunners for Araujo Speaking after Uruguay’s 2-2 draw against Cape Verde earlier this week to Antena 1, as relayed by Sport Witness, Araujo remained coy about his future. He said: “I am very happy at Sporting, but you never know what will happen.” This is a stark contrast to his previous comments, where he openly expressed a desire to stay at the Estadio Jose Alvalade. Meanwhile, Sporting’s Ivan Fresneda was at the game, and the Uruguayan was delighted to see his club team-mate in attendance. He said: “I was happy to speak with Fresneda, I am grateful he was here and I love playing with him. I hope we can play together for a long time.” The Uruguayan is under contract until 2029, so Sporting are under no pressure to let him go this summer. However, recent reports suggest that the Portuguese club are already working to tie him down to a new deal. Final Thoughts With Tyrell Malacia leaving as a free agent this summer and Patrick Dorgu deployed further up the pitch by Carrick, a new left-back is fast becoming a priority for United. Araujo could be a fantastic option for the job, but only for a fee lower than his €80 million release clause.

United’s plans for JJ Gabriel next season revealed, fans will be super excited – report
One academy starlet Manchester United fans are dying to see in action for the first team is JJ Gabriel. His stats for United’s Under-18s show exactly why. In 28 starts across all competitions, the 15-year-old registered 26 goals and four assists, as he picked up a slew of awards. Former head coach Ruben Amorim was a fan, and now, Michael Carrick has joined the list as well. Premier League rules prevented him from earning a senior debut last season, while interim manager Darren Fletcher overlooked him during the FA Cup. United have plans for JJ Gabriel But with numerous teams sniffing about, the Red Devils are determined to hold on to their highly-rated wonderkid, and according to Sully, they have developed the perfect plan to keep the 15-year-old happy. He is expected to be named in United’s pre-season squad, where Michael Carrick will see firsthand what the talented attacker can do under pressure. If things go according to plan, JJ Gabriel will likely make his senior United debut next season. “JJ Gabriel is very likely to make his debut next season. The club has laid out a plan for him and sees him as one of the most talented kids in the whole world, let alone England. Other academy youngsters to watch out for “Numerous clubs have been trying to poach him, including some of Europe’s giants, but United are continuing to fend them off. There is a strong chance he is included on the pre-season tour too.” Sully also adds that United fans better keep an eye on Noah Ajayi and Jim Thwaites. United need a left winger and Ajayi could save INEOS millions if he is allowed to showcase his form during pre-season. Carrick’s focus is on improving the midfield, with three signings expected. There is a chance that third option could come from the academy. Thwaites could be that name after Carrick came close to handing him his senior debut in the last campaign. Dan Gore, Jacob Devaney and Tyler Fletcher will also vie for that position.

United legend could be set for shock Serie A exit with club “open to offers” to get him off the books – report
The Manchester United goalkeeping position has proved too much to handle for many top stoppers over the years, with only a handful of names proving their worth in one of the most demanding roles in world football. David de Gea is one of the few who stepped up to the plate at Old Trafford, serving as the immediate successor to the legendary Edwin van der Sar, who left huge gloves to fill. After a rocky start, the Spaniard grew into the role and eventually left Manchester as one of the greatest number ones in the club’s rich history. New move on the horizon Incredible performances between 2013 and 2018 saw him win the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year award four times in five seasons, a record that has only just been surpassed by Bruno Fernandes, who won it for the fifth time this year. However, a dip in his final years meant he left Old Trafford on a bit of a low note, and a poor performance in the FA Cup final against Manchester City sealed his fate. He was eventually released at the end of that season with his contract not getting renewed. After taking some time out, De Gea bagged a move to Serie A, joining Fiorentina on a free transfer and enjoyed a fine start to life in Italy. So much so that he signed a contract extension in 2025 after his impressive first two seasons in Italy, which was due to keep him at the Artemio Franchi Stadium until 2030. However, as reported by tuttomercatoweb.com, Fiorentina are now looking to move De Gea on as part of a shake-up led by new sporting director Fabio Paratici. Paratici is keen to trim the wage bill in Florence and, with the former United man earning a hefty salary, he has found himself on the chopping block this summer. Furthermore, the report claims the expected arrival of high-profile goalkeeping coach Claudio Filippi could also be playing a part in the decision, with Fiorentina ready to listen to offers. United return? The report also notes De Gea’s claim that “the only club for which he could decide to say goodbye to Florence is a return to Manchester”, but a reunion at the Theatre of Dreams feels rather far-fetched. United head coach Michael Carrick does have a strong relationship with De Gea, having played in the 2013 Premier League-winning side together – the last time United won the title. However, given Senne Lammens’ outstanding first season at the club, United look to have their number one spot fixed for the foreseeable future at least. De Gea is unlikely to want to come back as a number two, but United are in the market for a back-up to Lammens, with Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir expected to leave in the window. It would certainly be a romantic end to his career for De Gea, who did not leave on the terms his service deserved, rather being shoved out the back door with United not covering themselves in much glory with regards to the departure. At 35 years old, his next move could very well be his last, and it will be interesting to see where the Spaniard sees out his career, which will be remembered forever fondly by the United faithful.

United prepared to accept big-money flop leaving for a low fee as ruthless Carrick looks to clear the board – report
Manchester United are looking to sign three midfielders this summer, but for that to happen, INEOS need to get their player sales spot on. Casemiro has already left, and the plan was to move Manuel Ugarte on as well. The Uruguayan has been a major disappointment since his arrival two summers ago. He has failed to adapt to the pace and physicality of the Premier League, which is why the Red Devils are so desperate to offload him. There is reported interest from Galatasaray and AC Milan, but none of the teams are ready to match United’s £30 million asking price. United prepared to accept a loss on Manuel Ugarte The 20-time English league champions need to raise £25.38 million to avoid a loss as per the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability rules. With the Uruguay international struggling to impact games at the World Cup, United do not see his value rising. The Sun have now reported that the Old Trafford side are prepared to accept a loss from the 25-year-old’s eventual sale. Apart from his asking price, the former Paris Saint-Germain star’s £120,000 weekly salary is proving to be another major hurdle. Manuel Ugarte unlikely to fetch too high a fee However, INEOS are prepared for that eventuality due to their business involving selling multiple academy graduates last summer. “MANCHESTER UNITED are prepared to accept a loss on Manuel Ugarte to sell him this summer. United bought Ugarte for an up-front fee of £42.3million in 2024, with the deal potentially rising to £50.75m with add-ons. “However, Ugarte has endured a poor couple of seasons with United and started only ten games last term. United would require a fee of £25.38m to avoid a loss on Ugarte under the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules. “But United are confident they could justify a loss on Ugarte following the £40m sale of Alejandro Garnacho last year. The sales of academy players count for pure profit under PSR and United banked additional fees from minor academy departures over the past 12 months.” United might struggle to land that third midfielder as a result United are well aware that should they actively offer the defensive midfielder to suitors, his value might tank even further. This is why reports emerged that Manuel Ugarte could be kept on as fourth-choice midfielder, a scenario the South American will be keen to avoid. It remains to be seen how much United eventually bank from the No. 25’s sale, and whether that can be enough to bring in a third midfielder, something Michael Carrick desperately wants.

Ex-United star issues public apology as nation’s World Cup dream teeters on the brink
Former Manchester United star Antonio Valencia has issued a public apology to his home nation of Ecuador following their poor World Cup displays so far. World Cup dream hangs in the balance Ecuador are on the brink of being eliminated from the 2026 World Cup as their search for a first win at the tournament continues. United forward Amad scored a late winner to condemn Ecuador to a heartbreaking loss in their opening group match. Ecuador followed that up with a goalless stalemate against the small Caribbean nation of Curacao, who had been beaten 7-1 by Germany in their previous outing. Sebastián Beccacece and his players now face a must-win game against Germany to have any chance of proceeding to the next round of the competition. The worrying form has naturally raised concerns back home, with Valencia turning to social media to respond. Valencia drops apology The former United man wrote on X, “I want to apologise to all the people of Ecuador, to everyone who travelled from so far away, to everyone who supported the team from the beginning.” “We know the frustration you feel, but we must remain united as a country. Please don’t be so harsh with your messages and comments toward the players.” “They are the ones who most want to bring joy to the country. Let’s support this new generation. There are many changes to be made and a long road ahead.” Quiero pedir disculpas a toda la gente de Ecuador, a todos quienes viajaron desde tan lejos, y a quienes apoyaron a la selección desde el principio.

He was brought in as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who had departed for Real Madrid. He made an immediate impact in his debut season, contributing seven goals and 13 assists across all competitions. He was also named in the PFA Team of the Year. Valencia made 339 appearances for United across all competitions for United. He helped the Red Devils to win two Premier League titles, one FA Cup, two League Cups and the Europa League.

French midfield maestro makes transfer stance clear as United launch ambitious push to sign him – report
Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga’s transfer position has become clear as Manchester United join other Premier League clubs in enquiring about his situation. United interest Having wrapped up a deal with Atalanta for Ederson, United have now turned their attention towards securing other midfield targets. Heading into the summer window, United’s priority was adding quality options to their midfield, especially following Casemiro’s exit and the uncertainty surrounding the future of Manuel Ugarte. Talks remain ongoing with West Ham to try and strike an agreement for Mateus Fernandes but he is not the only player the club is keeping tabs on. Another one is Camavinga, who is looking increasingly likely to depart Madrid in the coming weeks. He joined Madrid in 2021 but has struggled to consistently make an impact at the Santiago Bernabeu. The 2025/26 season was especially a poor one for Camavinga, who is not thought to feature very highly in the side’s plans moving forward. A recent report covered by The Peoples Person relayed that Jose Mourinho is open to offloading Camavinga, who missed out on a place in France’s 2026 World Cup squad. Madrid want to sell him, following the arrival of Bernardo Silva and their pursuit of Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez. Now, Sport have issued an update on the 23-year-old’s situation. Camavinga update According to the Spanish news outlet, Liverpool, Chelsea and United have all lodged enquiries for Camavinga as they explore the possibility of signing him this summer. Chelsea, who will have former Madrid boss Xabi Alonso as their manager from July 1, are in contact with Los Blancos about a potential deal. It’s said that Camavinga’s value has fallen by €50m (£43.1m). There is also interest in the player from Paris Saint-Germain, who are willing to table an offer to lure him to the French capital. However, as clubs line up for his services, Sport say that Camavinga has no desire to leave Madrid. He is “unwilling to leave the team” and wants to fight for his place under Mourinho. He is confident that he can turn the situation around and become a key player once more.

Last-gasp twist threatens to rob United of huge payday in attacker’s Serie A switch – report
Over the weekend, some interesting reports emerged from Italy about Mason Greenwood, putting INEOS on alert. Indeed, it was suggested that Greenwood’s move to AS Roma was at an advanced stage, with Roma attempting to negotiate terms with Marseille and agree on a transfer fee, the Ligue 1 side reportedly wanting around €55 million (£47m). That deal going through was always going to come in handy for Manchester United’s transfer activity, with the 20-time English champions due to receive a portion of that transfer fee. In the £26.7 million deal INEOS struck with Marseille for Greenwood to move to the Velodrome in 2024, United’s chiefs inserted a 50 per cent sell-on clause. Therefore, whatever Roma pay for the attacker, United stand to receive a reasonable share, so there is every reason to closely follow that deal. However, just as the 20-time English champions were bracing to receive their sizeable windfall, an interesting development has occurred. Fans threaten Mason Greenwood to Roma deal A petition aiming to stop Roma from signing Greenwood has now been launched online by the club’s own fans. The controversy that cost Greenwood his place at United is no secret, nor is the fact that he never got the chance to reclaim it, despite being cleared of all charges. That same controversy is now driving some Roma supporters to fight against this deal. The petition, which had already gathered over 500 signatures within 24 hours of its launch, argues: “We oppose the signing of Mason Greenwood by AS Roma. “This position is not based on personal hostility or a belief that people cannot rebuild their careers. It is based on the conviction that every football club has the right — and the responsibility — to choose who represents its badge.” Should the deal go through, the petition’s signatories argue it “would create an unavoidable conflict between the club’s public commitments and its actions.” “We respectfully urge AS Roma to abandon any pursuit of Mason Greenwood and to remain faithful to the principles that have earned the respect of supporters around the world.” Whether more fans join the online protest, and whether Roma ultimately bow to the pressure and pull the plug, remains to be seen. Greenwood deal for Roma might be a game changer Hopefully, it does not come to that, and not merely because United have something to benefit. Greenwood could genuinely elevate Roma’s attack. After all, the United academy graduate showed his quality in France. Over two seasons, he played in 66 league games, scoring 37 goals and providing 12 assists. Moreover, a combination of Donyel Malen and Greenwood could be a frightening prospect. Given everything the 24-year-old offers on the pitch, he is a player worth taking a chance on and one who, surely, has learned from his past.

United on alert as two clubs drop out of race for “incredible” star who can “explode” after joining Red Devils – report
West Ham United winger Crysencio Summerville is becoming one of the most sought-after names on the transfer market. Alongside Mateus Fernandes, Summerville was among the few bright spots in what was a difficult season in east London, which ultimately resulted in West Ham’s relegation. It has been widely reported that United are determined to sign Fernandes, having made him their priority midfield target. In recent days, it has emerged that they also want to sign his teammate. Boost for Man United as two clubs drop out of race for Crysencio Summerville Fabrizio Romano has already reported that Manchester United “keep asking” West Ham United about Crysencio Summerville, who has two goals and an assist to his name in the World Cup. French publication Foot Mercato claims Paris Saint-Germain are interested in the Dutch winger. However, they face stiff competition from Premier League clubs, with the likes of United, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur all chasing the 24-year-old. It is understood West Ham set a €50m (£43m) price tag at the start of the summer, but Summerville’s performances for the Netherlands in North America have seen his value increase. Accordingly, Serie A clubs AC Milan and AS Roma are thought to be out of the race to sign Summerville. Only Premier League clubs are in a position to beat PSG to his signature. Manchester United highly rate Crysencio Summerville On Monday, United insider Sully also addressed Summerville’s situation. It is claimed United see huge potential with the West Ham attacker and believe he is “someone that can explode if around better players and coaches.” “There is definitely strong interest there, but nothing advanced, as of now,” Sully posted on RoundTable.

As much as the idea of Summerville marauding on the left flank is exciting to imagine, United are unlikely to bring in a new winger without finding a new club for Marcus Rashford.
