Manchester United have an interest in Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Joao Gomes.

The Red Devils are looking to bolster their ranks ahead of the 2024 summer transfer window.

Man Utd could be attracted to the pair given their experience of Premier League football.

Manchester United could consider moves for Leicester City’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Joao Gomes during the 2024 summer transfer window, as journalist Ben Jacobs claims the club are in the “early stages of drawing up a shortlist” at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils have recently been the subject of a minority takeover from INEOS chairman Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who wants to improve the club’s football operations.

Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag hopes to be given a chance to lead a summer rebuild with the Premier League giants, but he must prove his worth in the final weeks of the 2023/24 campaign.

Dewsbury-Hall and Gomes have been in excellent form for their respective clubs this term.

Ahead of the 2024 summer transfer window, Manchester United will prepare for a significant market ahead of the 2024/25 season as they aim to return to the upper echelons of English and European football.

The Red Devils currently sit sixth in the Premier League and will miss out on a place in next term’s Champions League unless they can overthrow Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur in the race for a spot in the League’s top four.

The journalist has also revealed that Man Utd are considering moves for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Joao Gomes this summer.

Leicester may have to sell the former, regardless of whether they secure an immediate return to the Premier League. Still, he will almost certainly be allowed to leave the King Power Stadium if the Foxes remain in the Championship.

Dewsbury-Hall could be available for £25m, with Leicester being charged with breaching the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules.

The Foxes had told Brighton & Hove Albion that they wanted £45m for the 25-year-old during the 2024 winter transfer window, but that price could be reduced this summer.

Dewsbury-Hall and Gomes have made a combined 95 Premier League appearances throughout their careers.

Gomes is also a name on Manchester United’s list, but Wolves are eager not to lose both the midfielder and Pedro Neto this summer.

If the Black Country outfit sell Neto, it will put them in a financially stronger position to withstand the Red Devils’ bids. Gomes, who dominated Casemiro in Wolves’ 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford in August 2023 according to SofaScore, is rated at £40m, but Wolves are thought to demand more if they sell one of their most talented prospects during the summer transfer window.
