Man Utd will buy at least one new centre-back
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has already confirmed that Man Utd will definitely buy at least one new centre-back in the summer transfer window .
Romano wrote in his Caught Offside column yesterday: Of course they will be signing a new centre-back this summer, as I’ve reported since September 2023, for sure that will be one of their priorities. But in terms of names, the top target will be decided later.
The likes of Gleison Bremer, Jean-Clair Todibo, Jarrad Branthwaite and Antonio Silva have been scouted, and it could even be that they’ll make two signings in that position, but it’s too early now to know which specific players they’ll prioritise.
There have been loads of rumours around about who the identity of that new centre-back could be with new co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe looking to bring in young talent.
