Manchester United is considering Aurelien Tchouameni of Real Madrid and Alex Scott of Bournemouth as high-priority midfield targets this summer. This comes after Mateus Fernandes moved to Tottenham for £85m. United's shortlist also includes Felix Nmecha, Ayyoub Bouaddi, and Sander Berge, amid efforts to strengthen their squad.

United is also pursuing Crysencio Summerville for the left wing, with plans to use proceeds from a potential Marcus Rashford sale.
