Maximilian Beier

Manchester United have recently been linked to German striker Maximilian Beier, who is part of the country’s Euro 2024 squad.

Paulo Dybala

Reports from Italy claim Manchester United are interested in Paulo Dybala, who gets linked with a move every single year.

TMW cite Italian newspaper Il Messaggero, claiming the striker has specific interest from Erik ten Hag.

With this one, we will believe it when we see it for real.

Lucas Gourna-Douath

French outlet Sport Zone claim Manchester United are one of the clubs interested in Red Bull Salzburg midfielder Lucas Gourna-Douath.

The 20-year-old is said to be being monitored by several clubs, with Ligue 1 side Monaco leading the race for the France under-21 international’s signature.

Botan Ameen

According to The Mail, Manchester United have been watching Swindon Town prospect Botan Ameen.

Ameen scored two goals to knock Manchester United’s under-18s out of the FA Youth Cup earlier this year.

The 17-year-old has been called into the Iraq under-20 squad. He also has English citizenship.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin

The Mail also report Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin has some admirers at Manchester United, with the forward linked with a move away from Goodison Park.

However, it is also claimed Everton’s asking price is too high and Manchester United do not intend on following up this interest.
