Overview

• United are in advanced talks with RB Leipzig over a reported £60–70 million fee for 22-year-old Benjamin Sesko, competing directly with Newcastle United.
• The club is weighing a £40–45 million bid for Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins as a proven Premier League striker, even though Villa have insisted he is not for sale.
• Manchester United have approached Royal Antwerp about goalkeeper Senne Lammens, who is available for around €15–20 million to provide competition for Andre Onana.
• Plans to offload high-wage players—Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Antony—are underway, with Chelsea and Al-Nassr among potential destinations for Garnacho and Antony respectively.
• These transfer strategies underpin Ruben Amorim’s squad overhaul ahead of the new season without European football, with targeted reinforcements on striker, goalkeeper and wing-back roles.
