Man Utd reach agreement to sign Ederson and target a £100 million duo from West Ham.

Manchester United are taking significant steps in the 2026 summer transfer window to reshape their squad under new manager Michael Carrick. The current focus for the Old Trafford club is on strengthening the midfield and bolstering the attack with promising and experienced signings.

The deal to sign Ederson has been finalized.

According to the latest reports from Italian media, Manchester United have reached a full agreement with Atalanta for the transfer of midfielder Ederson. The total value of the deal is estimated at €53 million (approximately £46 million), including €48 million in fixed fees and €5 million in performance-related add-ons.

Ederson, the Brazilian international, is considered a crucial addition to strengthen Manchester United's midfield control and fighting spirit. Currently, the two clubs are finalizing the last details of the paperwork. Ederson is expected to fly to England soon to undergo a medical examination and officially be unveiled as a new player.

Man Utd are close to completing the Ederson deal.

West Ham United's plan to "snatch" the duo

Alongside the Ederson deal, Manchester United's management is preparing an ambitious plan to recruit two of West Ham United's brightest stars: Mateus Fernandes and Jarrod Bowen. This move comes as the London club faces the risk of relegation from the Premier League.

Mateus Fernandes is considered a priority target for the midfield. He has expressed his desire to join Old Trafford over other options like Arsenal or Chelsea. Meanwhile, Jarrod Bowen's case is noteworthy as he is 29 years old, breaking the club's recent policy of prioritizing players under 25. However, the England international's class and extensive experience are seen as a necessary addition to bring immediate effectiveness to the attack.

If West Ham United fail to avoid relegation, the estimated price for Manchester United to acquire this duo would be around £100 million. This is considered a reasonable figure to help West Ham resolve their financial problems while also bringing in quality players for manager Michael Carrick.

Interest in Josh Acheampong

In addition to midfield and forward targets, Manchester United are also eyeing Chelsea's young defender Josh Acheampong. While Chelsea insist the player is not for sale, journalist Ben Jacobs reveals that Acheampong may consider other options if he is not guaranteed regular playing time at Stamford Bridge next season.

The 2026 summer transfer window promises to be a busy and turbulent period for Manchester United. Under the leadership of Michael Carrick, fans expect the Red Devils to quickly regain their former glory through quality and well-planned personnel additions.
