Top target: Man Utd and Ten Hag have identified who they want to sign once they clear some sales

Posted by

As the transfer window nears its end, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag reportedly has identified a new priority signing.

What is the most recent Manchester United news?

With regard to Manchester United’s pursuit of Kustosija forward Dino Klapija, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided an update, saying: “Understand Manchester United and RB Leipzig are both negotiating to sign top talent Dino Klapija — also an option to close the deal now for January. Since the Croatian team Kustosija’s 2007-born striker will shortly depart, a decision on the player’s side is anticipated soon.

Additionally, according to Football Insider, United have enquired about the availability of Wolverhampton Wanderers right-back Nelson Semedo as Ten Hag looks to bolster his defence before the transfer window closes, particularly in light of Luke Shaw’s ongoing defensive setbacks.

Semedo is said to fit the bill for the kind of full-back Manchester United is looking to bring to Old Trafford this summer due to his offensive prowess and ability to overlap frequently, although he naturally prefers to play on the right. Contact has already been made between the two parties.

According to Sky Sports, Manchester United has also been closely monitoring Fiorentina midfielder Sofyan Amrabat recently. As a result, Amrabat was not present for Fiorentina’s Europa Conference league play-off game against Rapid Vienna.

They want to buy Sofyan Amrabat for a reason, Manchester United legend Gary Neville said in an interview with Sky Sports. He wants everyone on the team to be able to receive and accept the football. Sofyan Amrabat is coming in, and he can sit next to Casemiro since he can pass the ball.

Amrabat can also play central defence, but his presence would finally allow Manchester United to have some much-needed security in front of the back four.

Who else is being acquired by Manchester United?

According to a FootballTransfers report, Manchester United consider Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo to be their ‘primary target’ to bolster their defence. However, player sales will be necessary to speed up the process of any potential move.

A £21k per week ace Todibo’s transfer to Old Trafford this summer would cost in the neighbourhood of £35 million, and it is understood that personal terms would not be an issue in discussions to secure his services.


According to Transfermarkt, sought-after defender Todibo has played 104 times for Ligue 1 team Nice in all competitions, scoring two goals in that time.

Despite the Red Devils’ interest in Bayern Munich defender Benjamin Pavard, L’Equipe through Get Football News France reports that Todibo is actually close to joining Manchester United and that his arrival in the North West is said to be ‘in sight’.

Todibo, described as “solid as a rock” by Football Talent Scout Jacek Kulig, might bring some stability to Ten Hag’s backline as Manchester United looks to contend for victories on both the domestic and European fronts.
