Manchester United have held talks with Éderson’s representatives through intermediaries in recent weeks.

The 26-year-old is highly admired by Jason Wilcox, with interest dating back years. His agent André Cury is also pushing for a move.

Nothing is done yet, but the interest is concrete and United see him as a market opportunity.

With Champions League qualification now secured for Manchester United, there is a DESIRE on Bruno Fernandes’ side to start talking over a CONTRACT EXTENSION at the club!

United are not unwilling to talk but are determined not to deviate from a pre-stated desire to keep their wage bill under control.

Bruno Fernandes is named the Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year! 🔴💪

Manchester United LOVE Aurélien Tchouaméni and internally view him as one of the BEST midfielders in world football.

However, Real Madrid currently see him as a key player both for the present and for the FUTURE.

If at any point Real Madrid & Tchouaméni decide to part ways during the summer — Manchester United will be there — the relationship between Manchester United & his agents is excellent but at the moment the door remains closed.

Scouts from Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Bayern and Barcelona were at the Johan Cruyff for Ajax vs PSV Eindhoven last week.

All keeping a close eye on talented 20-year-old winger Mika Godts, who is attracting strong interest ahead of the summer.

Several Manchester United players, including Bruno Fernandes, Matheus Cunha, and Harry Maguire, have told the hierarchy they want Michael Carrick to STAY.

Manchester United’s midfield signings this summer:

"There’s at least two signings in the midfield. I see at least because it depends on what happens with other players. My expectation is that they will sign at least two midfielders. Some of the names we’ve mentioned are still in the list.

Elliot Anderson is for sure still on the list, but Man City are winning the race and are pushing a lot and are ready to present an important proposal to the player then negotiate with Forest once the relegation battle is over. Tonali is another name they have on the shortlist. Ederson for Atalanta could be a back-up option and is available for around €40-45M. Don’t forget Baleba who’s been on the list since last summer."

Gary Lineker on Kobbie Mainoo and Ruben Amorim treatment for him:

“I absolutely bewildered by the fact that he didn't get a look in under the previous incumbent.

I mean, what, Amorim, I don't get it at all. And even whatever system you play or anything like that, how can you not see how good that kid is?”

Manchester United are monitoring several midfielders ahead of a major rebuild 👇

• Carlos Baleba
• Elliot Anderson
• Aurélien Tchouaméni
• Sandro Tonali
• Adam Wharton
• Alex Scott

The club want a No.6 and a controlling midfielder in the mould of Kobbie Mainoo, who recently signed a new five-year deal.
