Manchester United have been active in the 2025 summer transfer window, with several significant moves both incoming and outgoing as Ruben Amorim shapes his squad. The Reds’ first major arrival was Matheus Cunha from Wolves, followed by Diego Leon from Cerro Porteno. Enzo Kana-Biyik, signed as a free agent from Le Havre, was immediately loaned to Lausanne-Sport for the season. On the departures front, key players Christian Eriksen, Jonny Evans, and Victor Lindelof left at the end of their contracts. Evans remains at the club in a new role as head of loans and pathways after his retirement. Additionally, Tom Heaton has signed a new one-year contract, and several youth players have left on loans or permanent deals[1].
The club continues to pursue transfer targets and has recently submitted a third bid for Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo. The latest offer is worth £65 million plus £5 million in add-ons. Brentford are currently considering the proposal after previously rejecting United’s offers of £55 million and £62.5 million. Mbeumo is reportedly keen on joining United, despite interest from Tottenham. Ruben Amorim views Mbeumo as an ideal fit and hopes to have him signed before the team embarks on their pre-season tour on July 22[3][5]. However, as of now, there is no confirmation that a deal is imminent, and delays have caused some frustration for all parties involved[5][7]. United’s opening fixtures for the Premier League are fast approaching, and the club is eager to bolster the squad ahead of the new campaign.
Among the outgoing transfers, the departures of Eriksen, Lindelof, and Evans mark the end of an era for some experienced players at Old Trafford. The club is also monitoring the futures of other forwards and goalkeepers but has yet to finalize additional arrivals after the confirmed signings of Cunha and Leon[6].
