Manchester United have had a very interesting summer transfer window so far. The club has managed to bring in the likes of Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo to reinforce the attack.
The club has also been linked with a potential move for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko. It is very obvious that Ruben Amorim wants to go big this summer and this might be his way of doing that.

Now, as per Turkish outlet Takvim, Man Utd are ready to submit a bid to sign talented central midfielder Gabriel Sara from Galatasaray.
The Brazilian has garnered a lot of interest this summer from many clubs apart from the Red Devils. Manchester City, Leeds United, Wolves, Everton, Nottingham Forest, and Aston Villa are all interested and keen on signing him.
Sara captured the eye with his performances in the 2024/25 season, scoring 2 goals and providing 10 assists in 45 outings across all competitions. He took a lot of responsibility for the Turkish giants, emerging as the set-piece specialist.
The report mentions that although Galatasaray are not keen on signing him, they are okay with opening negotiations as long one of the interested clubs offers at least £34.8m for Sara.
The 26-year-old Brazilian is no stranger to English football. He has previously played for Norwich City, albeit in the Championship, but adapting to the country is unlikely to be a problem.
United have a solid midfielder currently but if there is one thing that you could point out as a cause of concern, it is that most of them are too similar in terms of profile.
Signing someone like Sara could help take away some of the creative burden that solely falls on Bruno Fernandes’ shoulders. Let’s wait and see if the Red Devils get a deal wrapped up for the Brazilian in the coming weeks.
