I would love to play for Man United – Man Utd eye £40m Wolves star midfielder after sending transfer message With Christian Eriksen Future in Doubt

Manchester United’s midfield transfer targets could largely depend on the futures of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, and Scott McTominay at Old Trafford.

Manchester United are eyeing a move for Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Joao Gomes ahead of the 2024 summer transfer window at Old Trafford.

Any deal could weigh heavily on the departures of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, and Scott McTominay.

Casemiro has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, whilst Eriksen has recently admitted he is “unhappy” at his lack of minutes under Erik ten Hag.

Manchester United’s midfield targets could depend on the futures of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, and Scott McTominay, as journalist Ben Jacobs hints that Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Joao Gomes could be among the club’s top targets at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils are looking to bolster their options in the middle of the park and hope to be backed by INEOS’ minority ownership, led by chairman Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

Head coach Erik ten Hag has endured a tumultuous 2023/24 campaign and aims to remain in his post come the 2024 summer transfer window amid speculation over his future.

United have had problems in midfield this term and have been unable to establish a consistent partnership in the middle of the park.

Man Utd interest in Gomes amid potential sales

“early stages of drawing up a shortlist” at Old Trafford amid interest in Leicester City’ Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Wolves’ Joao Gomes.

Last month, reports claimed that Man Utd were weighing up a move for Gomes, rated at £40m. The 23-year-old has recently put in impressive displays for the Black Country outfit and made his international debut for Brazil during the March international break.

Man Utd have plenty of options to strengthen their midfield options. They will likely bolster this area should Casemiro exit this summer. The 32-year-old is the subject of firm Saudi Arabian interest, especially from current Pro League leaders Al Hilal.

Christian Eriksen could also leave Old Trafford in the summer after becoming frustrated with his bit-part role under Erik ten Hag. The reported £150,000-per-week earner recently admitted that he is unhappy with his lack of minutes at Man Utd, hinting that he could seek a departure when the summer transfer window opens.

According to The Daily Star, Manchester United have changed their minds and opted to hand Scott McTominay a new contract, amid a potential sale over the past two transfer windows.

Less than 12 months ago, the 27-year-old was deemed surplus to requirements at the Theatre of Dreams. However, given McTominay’s history of being on the market, it shouldn’t come as a surprise if Man Utd eventually ended up welcoming offers for the Scotland international
