18:50 — STATE OF PLAY: United’s Ambitious Summer Window

Left-winger priority: Jamal Musiala (Bayern Munich) remains target; €110m required. Parallel talks ongoing. Defensive signings: Diego Reyes (Monterrey) at €20m close to agreement. Midfield depth: Youssouf Fofana (Monaco) negotiations paused. Departures: Antony loan exit to Fenerbahçe arranged; Martial discussing terms with MLS club.

17:55 — Chelsea rival United in race for Roma’s Manu Kone

Manchester United’s pursuit of Roma midfielder Manu Kone has been complicated by Chelsea, who have opened their own talks over a possible summer move, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Romano reports United have already made contact with Kone’s entourage as they continue hunting a third midfield addition following the signings of Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans, with Chelsea’s interest said to be driven by uncertainty over Enzo Fernandez’s long-term future at Stamford Bridge. The Athletic’s David Ornstein added that a Kone deal “would be an excellent signing”, with director of football Jason Wilcox targeting a midfielder who can “really cover ground”.

Roma have rejected a £34m bid from Atletico Madrid and want closer to £51m for the France international, with United’s interest in Carlos Baleba having cooled and Manchester City having moved ahead of them in the race for Ayyoub Bouaddi.

12:40 — Man Utd confirm successful Ugarte surgery

Manchester United have confirmed that Manuel Ugarte has successfully undergone surgery on the knee-ligament injury he suffered on international duty with Uruguay at the World Cup.

The club say the midfielder will now begin his rehabilitation at Carrington under the medical and performance staff, with no return timeframe given — he is expected to miss the start of Michael Carrick’s first full season in charge.

Ugarte’s lengthy absence, coming after Casemiro’s exit to Inter Miami, has added further urgency to United’s search for a third midfield signing this summer following the arrivals of Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans.

11:35 — Baleba trail goes cold again as United make no fresh move

Carlos Baleba’s on-off pursuit has gone quiet once more. Fabrizio Romano says United have made no fresh contact with Brighton and there is no proposal on the table, despite the Cameroon international’s continued willingness to make the switch to Old Trafford.

Brighton’s valuation, said to be at least £70m, remains the sticking point, and with United’s midfield business already advanced through Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans, Baleba looks set to stay on the back burner for now rather than be revisited before deadline day.

Full story: Man Utd’s Carlos Baleba pursuit turns cold, says Fabrizio Romano

08:50 — United happy to let the Alex Scott situation drag on

Manchester United are in no rush over Alex Scott. Rather than meet Bournemouth’s £80m valuation of the 22-year-old up front, United sources believe time is a more useful weapon than an inflated fee.

The Athletic’s Laurie Whitwell reports United admire Scott and see him as part of the long-term midfield picture, but are prepared to let the saga run deep into the summer in the hope Bournemouth’s price softens.

Full story: The waiting game — why Man Utd won’t rush their Alex Scott move

08:05 — Man City ‘pushing hard’ to beat United to Bouaddi as U-turn confirmed

Manchester City have made a firm U-turn on Ayyoub Bouaddi, according to United’s own reporting on the race — City are now pushing to sign the Lille midfielder outright this summer rather than leave him on loan in France, a shift that puts United’s pursuit under fresh pressure.

United had been prepared to make their own move after landing Andrey Santos and triggering Youri Tielemans’ release clause, but City’s readiness to integrate Bouaddi immediately changes the calculus on a deal that could cost upwards of £80m.

Full story: Man City ‘pushing hard’ to beat Man Utd to Ayyoub Bouaddi

06:58 — Wednesday state of play: where every United saga stands

United go into Wednesday with two midfield signings already banked. Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos are both through the door, Karl Darlow has arrived as free back-up in goal, and the Ederson pursuit was formally closed out earlier in the week after the move fell apart.

The search for a third midfielder now dominates the in-tray. Manu Koné remains the frontrunner after Roma softened their stance, with Florentino Luis and Aurelien Tchouameni still mentioned in the background, but a fresh name has just crashed into the race — more on that below.

Elsewhere, exit business is ticking along: Chelsea are said to be circling both Alejandro Garnacho and Mason Greenwood, while Marcus Rashford has left the door open to a sensational return once his Barcelona loan expires.

06:52 — Man City muscle in on Bouaddi as United’s midfield search gets more crowded

Manchester City have moved into pole position for Ayyoub Bouaddi, with United now playing catch-up for the Lille and Morocco midfielder just as Michael Carrick’s rebuild looked to be settling on other targets.

Sky Sports News reports City are “pushing hard” ahead of a decision on Bouaddi’s future that is expected soon, with United understood to have carried out further checks following his breakout World Cup. The Athletic’s David Ornstein says City are determined to beat United, Liverpool and Arsenal to a player valued at around €100m for an immediate sale, or closer to €80m if a loan-back to Lille is included — a structure United are said to be more open to than City.

21:15 — Tuesday wrap: United’s busiest day of the rebuild so far

Tuesday turned into the busiest single day of Manchester United’s summer so far. Andrey Santos took his first Carrington training session, Youri Tielemans went from release clause to official unveiling inside roughly eleven hours, and Karl Darlow’s free signing quietly closed out the goalkeeping search. The Melvine Malard sale to Chelsea also moved into its final stages, while Michael Carrick’s hunt for a third midfielder continues to run through Manu Kone, Joao Gomes and Aurelien Tchouameni.

No fee has been agreed on the midfield front and the Malard deal is not yet signed, so both stories roll into Wednesday.

19:48 — Third midfielder race: Gomes emerges as Liverpool circle, Tchouameni door not fully shut

With Santos and Tielemans through the door, Manchester United’s hunt for a third midfielder is still live, with Roma’s Manu Kone, Wolves’ Joao Gomes and Real Madrid’s Aurelien Tchouameni all in the conversation.

Gomes has become a fresh option after his proposed move to Atletico Madrid collapsed, with the Spanish club redirecting funds towards Bernardo Silva. United made contact after their Ederson deal fell through, but Sky Sports and TeamTalk report Liverpool have also approached Wolves, raising the threat of a hijack.

Tchouameni signed a new contract at Real Madrid through to 2031 earlier this month, but TeamTalk reports a Madrid contact has suggested the France international could still be sold, keeping United’s long-standing interest alive. As of Tuesday evening, no fee has been agreed for any of the three names.

19:18 — Malard closing in on club-record move to Chelsea

Manchester United are closing in on a club-record sale of forward Melvine Malard to Women’s Super League rivals Chelsea, with the fee reported by the Guardian at as much as £850,000.

United tried to extend Malard’s contract, which runs out next summer, but the France international made clear she wanted a new challenge. The move would reunite her with Chelsea boss Sonia Bompastor, who previously coached her at Lyon.

Neither club has yet confirmed an agreement, though talks are said to have reached their final stages.

18:42 — DONE DEAL: United confirm Tielemans arrival on deal until 2031

Manchester United have made it official, confirming the signing of Youri Tielemans from Aston Villa on a contract running until June 2031 after triggering the Belgian’s release clause, reported at around £35m.

The World Cup quarter-finalist becomes United’s third summer arrival after Andrey Santos and Karl Darlow. Director of football Jason Wilcox praised the midfielder’s composure, creativity and leadership, while the club’s own data pointed to Tielemans’ progressive passing as a key reason for pursuing him.

17:34 — Roma soften stance as United chase third midfielder in Manu Kone

Roma head coach Gian Piero Gasperini has all but confirmed Manu Kone could be sold this summer, telling Rai Radio Uno the club “need to balance the books”. Kone’s agent has been in England holding talks with Premier League clubs, per Gazzetta dello Sport, with United and Liverpool both credited with interest. Roma want around €60m (£51m), having already knocked back a €40m Atletico Madrid bid.

David Ornstein says Jason Wilcox wants “somebody with legs” for United’s third midfield addition after Andrey Santos and the incoming Youri Tielemans.

16:30 — Adeyemi to Barcelona closes the door on a Rashford reunion

Barcelona are closing in on Borussia Dortmund’s Karim Adeyemi for an initial €22m (plus €7m in bonuses), a move that appears to end Marcus Rashford’s hopes of returning to Camp Nou after his loan spell. The Manchester Evening News says Adeyemi’s arrival is another setback for Rashford, who remains under contract at United until 2028 and is expected to hold talks with Michael Carrick after England’s World Cup run ends.

11:52 — DONE DEAL: Tielemans completes Manchester United medical, signs until 2031

Youri Tielemans has passed his Manchester United medical and put pen to paper, according to Fabrizio Romano, who says the move is “done and sealed” with the Belgium international agreeing a five-year deal through to June 2031.

It caps a quick turnaround from this morning’s medical and makes Tielemans Michael Carrick’s second permanent midfield addition of the window after the £50m arrival of Andrey Santos, following United’s activation of his release clause at Aston Villa. An official club unveiling is expected in the coming hours.

07:28 — Romano: “here we go” as Tielemans medical gets under way

Fabrizio Romano has put the seal on Manchester United’s move for Youri Tielemans, declaring “here we go” on a deal built around the Belgian’s €41m (£35m) release clause, according to United’s own coverage. Tielemans travelled to Manchester on Monday evening and is now working through his medical before putting pen to paper.

Sky Sports add that the finer points between the two clubs were settled before the medical began, with the midfielder expected to sign this week and link up with fellow summer arrival Andrey Santos in Michael Carrick’s rebuilt engine room.

21:20 — Bayern pull Kim Min-jae off the market as United interest cools

Bayern Munich have shifted their stance on Kim Min-jae, with the Bundesliga champions no longer treating the South Korea defender as a player they want to sell this summer. Manchester United had been monitoring the 29-year-old through the World Cup but never opened formal talks before his country’s group-stage exit.

Bayern would reportedly still listen to a significant offer if one landed and Kim pushed for the move, but with the centre-back under contract until 2028 the German club retains control. Carrick’s staff must now weigh how high a defensive addition sits on the priority list given the club’s focus elsewhere this window.

20:40 — United confirm Ederson exit as Tielemans medical set for Tuesday

Manchester United have formally told Atalanta they will not proceed with a move for Ederson, ending a deal worth around £38m after concerns arose in further medical checks. Atalanta are ready to welcome the Brazil midfielder back and have offered him a new contract to June 2031.

Michael Carrick has moved quickly to redirect his midfield plans, with United having triggered the roughly £36m release clause in Youri Tielemans’ Aston Villa contract. A verbal agreement is in place and the Belgium international could undergo his medical at Carrington on Tuesday, which would make him Carrick’s second midfield addition of the window after Andrey Santos.
