MU asked to buy Tchouameni for 78 million pounds

MU unexpectedly sent a £78 million offer for midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni, but Real Madrid refused.

MU is suddenly interested in Tchouameni but Real Madrid confirmed not to sell.

According to the Daily Mail , Manchester United made a bold move to strengthen their midfield under coach Ruben Amorim. The Red Devils' top target is Aurelien Tchouameni - Real Madrid's versatile central midfielder. However, the Bernabeu team flatly rejected MU's surprise offer for the 25-year-old player.

Tchouameni is seen as an ideal replacement for Christian Eriksen, who left Old Trafford when his contract expired this summer. Since joining Real Madrid from Monaco in 2022 for a fee of £85.3 million, Tchouameni has made 146 appearances, scoring five goals and contributing six assists. The French midfielder's ability to win the ball back, control the tempo and support the defense is highly appreciated, in line with the football philosophy that Amorim is building at MU.

Despite failing to sign Tchouameni, MU still made their mark on the transfer market with three notable signings. First was Matheus Cunha - a Brazilian striker who arrived at Old Trafford for £62.5 million from Wolverhampton. With a salary of £200,000 a week, Cunha is currently the fourth highest paid player at the club, behind only Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford and Mason Mount. Cunha's arrival is expected to bring flexibility and new energy to MU's attack.

In addition, the Manchester team quickly completed two potential long-term deals. Young talent Enzo Kana-Biyik arrived on a free transfer from Le Havre, while Diego Leon - an 18-year-old Paraguayan striker - was recruited from Cerro Porteño. Both are expected to be rough diamonds in the process of rebuilding the force under Ruben Amorim.

In addition, Bryan Mbeumo - a star of Brentford - is emerging as the next target that MU is pursuing closely this summer. Although the Cameroonian striker personally expressed his desire to join Old Trafford, Brentford is still determined to keep the mainstay when continuously rejecting two offers with a total value of up to 60 million pounds from MU. With Brentford demanding a higher fee, the "Red Devils" are forced to consider carefully in the next stage of the transfer window.
