Manchester United are “expected” to complete a deal for Udinese centre-back Oumar Solet as the club draws close to agreeing its second summer signing after Matheus Cunha, according to a report.
The Red Devils confirmed Cunha’s £62.5 million move from Wolverhampton Wanderers had been finalised over the weekend with the Brazilian international set to take the number ten shirt at Old Trafford.
But Cunha looks set to be joined by another signing with The Sun revealing United are interested in signing Solet with movements being made to complete a deal.
The report states “a move for Oumar Solet is expected to gain traction, with the French defender now expected to follow Matheus Cunha to the club.”
United were linked with the 25-year-old defender in March after his impressive performances in Serie A this season.
As relayed by The Peoples Person, Old Trafford officials are said to have “held talks” with their Italian counterparts over a deal for Solet whose contract with Udinese expires in 2027.
