Incoming Transfers
Patrick Dorgu Deal
Manchester United is reportedly close to securing Patrick Dorgu’s signature, with the versatile Danish international expected to join within hours. This potential signing, which would mark Ruben Amorim’s first major acquisition, comes amid interest from Chelsea and Napoli[1].
Matheus Cunha Interest
The club is pursuing Wolves striker Matheus Cunha, who has impressed with 10 goals in 20 Premier League games this season. His Boxing Day performance against United particularly caught the attention of club officials. However, the £60m price tag might delay any move until summer[3].
Outgoing Transfers
Antony Loan Confirmed
Fabrizio Romano has confirmed Antony’s loan move to Real Betis until June 2025. The Brazilian winger, who has struggled for playing time this season, will look to rebuild his form in La Liga[1][2].
Rashford Loan Options
Monaco has emerged as the frontrunner to secure Marcus Rashford on loan, with AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund also showing interest[5].
Potential Future Targets
Ivan Toney Possibility
The club is considering a move for Al-Ahli forward Ivan Toney, who has scored four goals in 12 league matches in Saudi Arabia. A potential return to England could materialize in summer 2025 or January 2026[1].
Other Targets
United continues to monitor several other options:
- Victor Osimhen at Napoli (currently on loan at Galatasaray)
- Randal Kolo Muani, whose move to Juventus recently fell through
- Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves as a potential Luke Shaw replacement
