Chelsea's Andrey Santos considers move to Manchester United amid uncertainty

Summary

Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos is reportedly exploring a transfer to Manchester United. United's midfield plans have been disrupted after losing Casemiro to Inter Miami and the failed pursuit of alternatives. Santos, 22, is viewed as a versatile option for United, who need depth in midfield. Talks are ongoing, but Chelsea's £50 million valuation and their own squad depth pose challenges. Santos has expressed a desire for more regular playing time, which he may find difficult to achieve at Chelsea given the competition.
