Manchester United are showing strong interest in Borussia Dortmund midfielder Felix Nmecha, according to reports in Germany.
The Red Devils have reportedly identified the former Manchester City academy graduate as a potential midfield reinforcement as they look to further rejuvenate Ruben Amorim’s squad this summer.
United are likely to part ways with out-of-contract Denmark international Christian Eriksen, while Casemiro’s future remains uncertain, with just over a year left on his Old Trafford deal.
The Brazilian remains of interest to clubs in the Saudi Pro League after being linked with a move to the Middle East last summer.

According to Bild, United are 'suddenly' willing to offer €48m (£40m) for Nmecha this summer, though it remains to be seen whether Dortmund would be tempted by such a proposal.
The Bundesliga club consider the 24-year-old a key player for the future, given his impressive progress since joining from Wolfsburg in 2023.
While some initially viewed Nmecha as a €30m flop, he has developed into a regular starter for Dortmund this season and was recalled to the German national team by Julian Nagelsmann in November.
The ‘exceptional’ 24-year-old, who is under a £100,000-per-week contract until June 2028, has been sidelined with a knee injury since January and missed Dortmund’s last seven Bundesliga games.
While the German club are unlikely to sanction his departure this summer, Nmecha could reportedly push for a move amid Dortmund’s disappointing domestic campaign.
The Signal Iduna Park outfit sit 10th in the Bundesliga table with eight games remaining and are 10 points off the top four.
