🚨 JUST IN: Ayyoub Bouaddi is being followed by Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Bayern Munich. In case of a departure, Lille prefers a sale with a one-year loan so that he can continue his development at the club. Olivier Létang is demanding between €80M and €100M.

The player appreciates PSG's project, but the Parisian club does not plan to recruit a midfielder this summer, unless there's an unexpected departure.

🚨 NEW: Although the extent of the injury Ugarte suffered in Uruguay’s 1-0 defeat to Spain – which eliminated Marcelo Bielsa’s side at the group stage – is still unknown, the possibility of lengthy rehab has cast doubt over the prospect of him being sold this summer.

In that case, it is unlikely to impact United’s ability to pay for both Ederson and Fernandes. However, the club were hoping to strengthen the squad by adding a third midfielder if there is room in the budget, and that was largely dependent on any money they could recoup for Ugarte.

🚨📸 Manuel Ugarte via Instagram:

"A few days have passed since everything happened.

Suffering the most serious injury a footballer can face in one of the most important matches in my country’s history, and seeing it end this way without being able to stay on the pitch and support my teammates until the final whistle, is something that will stay with me for the rest of my life.

Hitting rock bottom will make me stronger in every sense, and I truly believe that’s the case here.
Without a doubt, when life wants you to stop, it finds a way to let you know.

It’s up to me to take the positives from this.
Success in life is about starting again every time you fall.

I’m incredibly grateful to @AUFOficial and @manutd for being there for me from the moment it happened.
A huge thank you as well to my family, my friends, and everyone who has sent me messages of support during this time.
I’ll be back stronger."

🚨 NEW: How United’s recruitment process works:

The process begins by identifying the position or player profile the club is looking to strengthen. From there, Christopher Vivell and his recruitment team take the lead in identifying suitable targets and gathering detailed information on players from across world football. Recruitment assessments are supported by reports from the club’s scouting network before discussions move to the next stage.

United’s data department also plays an important supporting role throughout the process. Rather than driving recruitment decisions, data is primarily used to help build longlists, filter potential targets and provide additional analysis as discussions progress.

Kyle Macaulay oversees the club’s senior scouting operation, with his department feeding into the wider recruitment process alongside Vivell’s team. Potential targets are then ranked and narrowed down before a final shortlist is agreed internally.

While the process is collaborative, Jason Wilcox has the final authority over football recruitment decisions. Another key figure is director of football negotiations Matt Hargreaves, who plays a major role in managing relationships with agents and leading negotiations with clubs. He has been involved in a number of successful negotiations in recent years.

🚨 NEW: Jason Wilcox holds ultimate authority over football recruitment decisions following a collaborative process involving recruitment, scouting, data analysis and negotiations.

The new model represents a major departure from the structure that oversaw recruitment at Old Trafford for much of the previous decade. Responsibility is now spread across several specialist departments before final decisions are made.

🚨 NEW: Mason Mount has been proposed to AC Milan in recent hours. Ruben Amorim has given the green light to begin possible negotiations.

Mount has a market value of around €25M, but the fee can be negotiated lower. An exchange of information is underway.

@AdamJoseph Thank you friend

[UtdXclusive @UtdXclusive]

🚨 JUST IN: Mateus Fernandes is open to joining either Manchester United or Tottenham Hotspur. The player is prepared to move to either club without creating issues on his end - he has no strong preference that blocks one over the other. Both clubs are actively engaging with his camp and West Ham through verbal proposals and daily discussions (no major official bids detailed yet), creating a competitive “bidding war” dynamic.

The key factor will be which club reaches the best financial agreement with West Ham, who are demanding around 85M with payment terms also mattering. The club offering the strongest proposal to West Ham will likely secure the deal, as the player is ready to accept either project.

🚨 NEW: Manchester United and Spurs are AWAITING a decision from Mateus Fernandes on which club he ONLY wants to join; the chosen club will then be in a stronger position to negotiate with West Ham.

West Ham are holding firm on an £80-85M asking price for Fernandes despite relegation, thanks to a recent cash injection that lessens their need for an immediate sale. Fernandes has not yet committed, and while United’s interest predates Spurs’, the situation remains fluid with potential for other clubs to re-enter.
