Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his staff are getting ready to make changes to the playing roster, and Manchester United has already set its sights on the forthcoming summer transfer market.

This week, it was previously rumoured that the team was getting ready to cash in on Scotland international Scott McTominay, who has attracted interest from West Ham United and is valued at £40 million.

At the end of the current campaign, the Red Devils have also been connected to a bid to sign Sporting center-forward Viktor Gyokeres, a former star of Coventry City.Ten Hag Man Gathered Erik ten Hag’s defence, however, might be strengthened before the 2024–2025 season, since the team is supposedly interested in a trade involving Ratcliffe.

Man Utd has “positive” conversations with Jean-Clair Todibo To compete at the centre of their defence, United is reportedly planning a summer raid to recruit OGC Nice centre defender Jean-Clair Todibo, according to TEAMtalk.

Naturally, INEOS also owns Nice, and given the Ratcliffe connection, this could be helpful in talks between the two teams should they decide to pursue a deal. The Red Devils and the players’ agents have reportedly had several “positive” and “exciting” conversations, according to TEAMtalk.

opinions of Tosin Adarabioyo, Jean-Clair Toddibo, and Tottenham According to the outlet, the center-back’s other, unidentified suitors have withdrawn from the competition to sign him, thereby opening the door for United, who have a “serious” interest in the French colossus, to move in.

According to the report, Nice has set a price tag of £40 million for Todibo, which is within Ratcliffe’s initial summer window budget of £150 million. Having previously spoken with the players’ representatives, United now has to negotiate with the French team in order to finalise an agreement before the 2024–2025 season.

Reasons for Man Utd to sign Jean-Clair Todibo Todibo would be a considerably younger alternative for Ten Hag at the back, since Victor Lindelof (29), Harry Maguire (30), Raphael Varane (30), and Jonny Evans (36) are all 29 or older heading into the summer. United may target the 24-year-old monster in the future, as seen by his Ligue 1 play this season, which suggests he may be able to provide more than Varane. 23–24 season Premier League player Raphael Varane Todibo Jean-Clair (Ligue 1) Looks 21 24 Rating for sofascore 6.92 7.13 each game’s tackle total 0.9 2.0 Every game, interceptions 0.7 1.2 Ball recoveries in each match 3.1 7.4 Success rate of ground duel 58% 57% Statistics sourced from Sofascore Todibo has surpassed his countryman in a number of crucial defensive parameters, as the table above illustrates.

He has gained control back for his side significantly more frequently through tackles, interceptions, and recoveries while having a comparable success percentage in deck duels. Varane only ranks in the top 37% of Premier League center-backs for progressive passes (3.86) per 90, while the Nice star is among the top 15% of Ligue 1 center-backs for the same statistic (5.67).

According to these numbers, Jacek Kulig, a talent scout, described the “complete package” as someone who could contribute more to United both in and out of possession since he possesses the quality and forward-thinking mentality to constantly advance play at an exceptional rate.Premier League, Onana, Rashford-Man, United, Ten Hag Ratcliffe may therefore find that Todibo, who is six years younger than Varane, is a great long-term addition from one of INEOS’ other teams this summer.
