MU is said to be about to explode “blockbuster” this summer, when accelerating to bring to striker Hugo Ekitike of Eintracht Frankfurt.
At the end of last season, coach Ruben Amorim stated two priorities for transfer to Man United. He wanted a striker that has been proven to be able to fill the gap in the attack and a reliable goalkeeper he can trust in decisive moments. Only more than 1 month is the new season that will start with the competition to meet Arsenal, but in fact MU's transfer plan is more stagnant than expected.
In the attack, MU signed a contract with Maheus Cuha and was approaching Bryan Mbeumo, but Amorim had not had the striker he wanted. The Portuguese coach is determined to sign a contract with Victor Osimhen or Viktor Gyokeres, because he wants a 9th player to be present, with experience and stability. He did not believe in signing a contract with Liam Delap and made it clear that he did not believe this young striker would be enough to raise the team. Internal BLD MU also has disappointment because there is no striker like that.
In the goalkeeper position, the situation is even more complicated. Andrre Onana, who lost the trust of some members of the coaching staff due to the unstable performance last season, is currently injured and is expected to miss the pre -season period.
In other notable developments, MU has accelerated to bring back to the star Hugo Ekitike of Eintracht Frankfurt. This happens despite Newcastle and Liverpool's believed to be preparing for a war to win the French striker. According to Teamtalk, MU made a final effort to win this striker.
It is reported that the Red Devils made “a serious offer at the last minute” to gain an advantage to rivals in the Premier League. The Manchester giant contacted the French player and his representative. Worth mentioning, this meeting is very positive.
The owner of MU, Ineos Group, is involved in speeding up the transfer process and is considering a “difficult to refuse” offer. According to the judgment, this will be the “blockbuster” in the summer of 2025. It is necessary to know that Ekitike has contributed 22 goals and 12 assists in 48 matches for Frankfurt last season. At the same time, Ekitike is valued at 100 million euros.
