Manchester United remain highly active in the early stages of the summer window, as Ruben Amorim continues to reshape the squad with a mixture of key additions and overdue departures.
The club’s recruitment team is working closely with the Portuguese manager to identify long-term solutions in attack, particularly with a desire to add pace and directness to the forward line.
With the future of a number of United’s wide men uncertain, United have placed a premium on signing a wide player who can make an immediate impact at Premier League level.

Bryan Mbeumo’s name has been discussed internally, though competition across the league remains fierce.
However, a key development may have handed United an unexpected advantage.
According to The Guardian, Tottenham Hotspur are now shifting their attention away from Bryan Mbeumo as they ramp up their pursuit of West Ham United’s Mohammed Kudus.
Despite not having done business with the Hammers since 2011, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is prepared to make an exception in order to bring Kudus to north London.
The Ghanaian star has an £85 million release clause, but Tottenham are reportedly planning to test West Ham’s resolve with a lower opening bid in the region of £50 million.

This shift in focus is significant for Manchester United, who have identified Bryan Mbeumo as a key summer target.
The Brentford winger, who has consistently impressed in the Premier League with his energy, work rate, and eye for goal, is viewed as a realistic option to reinforce Amorim’s attacking depth.
With Spurs now targeting Mohammed Kudus, United may face less resistance in their efforts to pursue Mbeumo.
United still need to manage their summer budget carefully, but with Spurs looking to not be in the mix, the path is now clearer to negotiate a deal for the Cameroon international.
As the transfer window gathers pace, this Tottenham decision could be just the opening Ruben Amorim and his staff needed.
