Manchester United plot summer move for Real Madrid mainstay if club opens door to offers

Manchester United are keeping a close eye on the situation surrounding Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni ahead of what could become a dramatic summer transfer window.

According to journalist Tyrone Marshall, the Premier League side is prepared to make a serious attempt to convince the French midfielder to move to Old Trafford if Real Madrid become open to selling him.

It has been suggested that the Red Devils are expected to prioritise midfield reinforcements this summer after confirming qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League.

Man United planning major midfield rebuild

With Casemiro set to leave at the end of the season, Manchester United are already preparing for a major reshuffle in midfield.

The report claims the English club want to sign at least two midfielders this summer, while a third addition could also become necessary if Manuel Ugarte departs.

In that context, Tchouameni has emerged as one of the names admired internally at Old Trafford.

United reportedly believe the French international has the physical qualities, experience and level required to strengthen the squad immediately ahead of their return to Champions League football.
