Mohamed Simakan of RB Leipzig is the subject of a reported inquiry from Manchester United.

What are the most recent rumours surrounding Simakan’s transfer to Man United?
Kim Min-jae of Napoli is reportedly a target for the Red Devils as they look to bolster their defence this summer. After speaking with the South Korean international’s representatives, reports surfaced recently claiming that United had now presented a contract offer to the player.

A new center-back may be needed at Old Trafford, with Simakan appearing to be another target, however, with Erik ten Hag having approved the exits of Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof, and Eric Bailly, who are also expected to be sold.

In the previous 48 hours, journalist Santi Aouna used Twitter to share a Simakan update. Along with mentioning the move for Kim, he claimed that both Arsenal and the Red Devils had made contact regarding the Frenchman.

Know that Mohamed Simakan has received inquiries from Arsenal and Manchester United. Numerous clubs in England are curious. Kim Min-Jae and MU are still in conversation. Both a project and a funding request have been presented by the Red Devils.

Mohamed-Simakan
Simakan is a person.
Simakan is a holding midfielder who can also play as a right back or centre back. Simakan has a career-high €28 million Transfermarkt valuation, indicating that he is at the top of his game.

A “complete center-back,” according to football talent scout Jacek Kulig, the 23-year-old has been with Leipzig since 2021 after leaving Strasbourg.

“One of Europe’s underrated young defenders. Strong, swift, versatile, and excellent with the ball. a full-back who can also play at right back and a complete centre. I’m reminded of a young Lilian Thuram by this.

Simakan has been a centre back and a right back this season, contributing to an impressive 11 goals across all competitions. Being able to compete with Kim, Raphael Varane, and Lisandro Martinez at centre back while also providing coverage at right back and in midfield could make him a wise signing at Old Trafford. Though the Red Devils might need to beat out Arsenal to sign Simakan, it appears that this could be a deal to keep an eye on.
