🚨 NEW: Manchester United are set to spend over £100M on two more midfielders this summer after missing out on top target Elliot Anderson, who preferred Manchester City despite their bids being rejected.
The club have drawn up a three-man shortlist of realistic targets: Baleba (keen to leave), Scott (entering final two years of contract), & Fernandes (West Ham’s most valuable asset after relegation).
United have already agreed a £35m deal for Ederson from Atalanta and plan at least 1 more signing.
They could chase a third if they offload struggling Manuel Ugarte, though manager Michael Carrick is prepared to keep him using a patient approach. Deals will use staggered payments to stay within budget.
