Man Utd Summer Transfer Rumours
Manchester United are always at the centre of attention when it comes to transfer rumours. This pre-season they’ve already brought in Mason Mount and he will be hoping for some playing time on their pre-season tour.
They’ve been linked with a number of players already this window and now their next most likely target looks like it’ll be Rasmus Hojlund as the betting sites price him at 4/11 for a move to Man Utd this summer.
Elsewhere, Neymar has been mentioned to be offered to Man Utd but that deal looks increasingly unlikely as Saudi links get stronger.
Joao Felix is the latest rumour for Manchester United and they’re now at 6/4 to sign the Portuguese star.
