BREAKING NEWS: Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ractlife releases £400M funds to Complete FIVE big expensive signings – As Ruben Amorim lineup possible REPLACEMENT for Fernandez and Hujlund
The summer transfer window is officially open for business. Well, it is for just over a week, anyway.
The revamped Club World Cup format means that FIFA have opened an additional window for clubs to strengthen their squads and attempt to offload any unwanted baggage. The window will close again as soon as 7pm on Tuesday, June 10, before reopening for the full duration of the summer on Monday, June 16.
It means if Manchester United are as keen to get on with the job of rebuilding head coach Ruben Amorim’s squad as they should be, they could be in for a busy start to the summer.
United are planning to make some much-needed changes to the landscape of their squad and it is looking increasingly likely that Matheus Cunha will set the ball rolling by arriving from Wolves. United have agreed to pay his £62.5million release clause and are now locked in talks over how to structure the payments.
The Reds have long since identified the Brazilian as one of their top targets for this summer’s window, and he is expected to slot straight into left-sided No.10 position. He scored 17 goals for Wolves this season and would be a welcome addition to United’s attack.
