According to reports, Manchester United attempted to sign Mohammed Kudus, the star player for West Ham United, by offering Jadon Sancho in exchange. The most likely next player to join Old Trafford has also been revealed.
Man Utd has already signed Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers, their first summer transfer window acquisition. After finding out that Cunha would be open to joining them even if they didn’t play European football, Manchester United acted swiftly to reach a personal deal.
The Brazilian’s £62.5 million release clause was subsequently triggered by the Red Devils, who then declared that an agreement had been reached for him to join Old Trafford.
In order to steer his project in the proper way, head coach Ruben Amorim needs a number of more players to join Manchester United this summer. In addition to Cunha, it also features another No. 10. Although CaughtOffside has described Man Utd’s attempts to capture Kudus instead, Bryan Mbeumo is a specific target.

Sancho has returned to Manchester United following a loan stint at Chelsea, so his future will also be something to watch. The 25-year-old could have tried to revive his career by moving to a place like West Ham, but it appears that possibility is now gone.
It’s unclear what Sancho will decide, but like Kudus, Saudi teams have reportedly expressed interest in him. Sancho was once seen to be a tremendous prospect, and many Premier League teams would undoubtedly be willing to take a chance on him. United has had a busy summer so far, and it appears they have more work to do as they want to get Kudus.
Bryan Mbeumo of Brentford appears to be in a fairly advanced stage of the process, and Matheus Cunha has already joined. However, given that many players are expected to leave Old Trafford, Kudus might be another excellent addition.
Sancho will probably be sold along with Marcus Rashford and Antony, who are unlikely to return following their loans. Additionally, there’s a good probability that MUFC will accept offers that are appropriate for Rasmus Hojlund, Joshua Zirkzee, and Alejandro Garnacho.
