BREAKING: Man Utd Make Approach To Sign Chelsea Star With Asking Price Set

According to a report by Metro Sport on Sunday, July 5, 2026, Manchester United have expressed interest in signing Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos, with the London club reportedly demanding a fee in the region of £50 million.

The Red Devils are looking to reshape their midfield following the departure of Casemiro, as head coach Michael Carrick continues building his squad for the upcoming campaign. Despite already securing an agreement for another midfield reinforcement, United are still searching for an additional player capable of adding balance and competition in the centre of the pitch.Favor And Life Battles?

After failing to complete deals for some of their earlier transfer targets, the club have shifted their attention back to Santos, a midfielder they have admired for a considerable period.

The Brazilian has found it difficult to earn a regular place in Chelsea’s starting lineup, with Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez firmly established as first-choice options in midfield. As a result, Santos is understood to be open to a move that would provide him with more consistent playing time.

His reputation has continued to grow following an impressive loan spell in France, where he displayed excellent composure, strong defensive qualities, and the technical ability that made him one of Brazil’s most highly rated young midfielders.

Chelsea are expected to assess offers for several members of their squad as head coach Xabi Alonso continues to reshape the team during the summer transfer window. Santos is among the players whose future remains uncertain, with his potential departure capable of generating funds for further arrivals.

While a number of European clubs are keeping a close eye on the midfielder’s situation, Manchester United are believed to be one of the strongest contenders as discussions over a possible transfer continue.
