Manchester United adds two more midfield targets! Casemiro s successor will only cost 30 million next summer, and the price will double in the winter window

The whole world knows that Manchester United will sign a new midfielder next year, so various rumors have never stopped. According to British media, after witnessing the development trajectory of Mbemo, Cunha and Sheshko after joining, Sir Jim Ratcliffe's Ineos management team firmly believes that bringing in Premier League players is the ideal choice, unless players from other leagues are as cheap as Senna Lamence.

Two new Premier League players have been added to the rumored candidate list, which already includes Nottingham Forest's Elliott Anderson, Crystal Palace's Adam Walton and Brighton's Carlos Baleba, while the new protagonists include Wolves' Joao Gomes and Bournemouth's Alex Scott.

This is not the first time that Brazilian international Joao Gomez has been linked to a move to Manchester United. The club has known about him as early as 2022, when he was still playing for Flamengo. In 2024, Gomez, who had already joined Wolves, once again entered the rumors of the Red Devils. At that time, he had just replaced Casemiro in the Brazilian team.

Manchester United finally chose Ugarte, but unfortunately the Uruguay international failed to perform at his due level, forcing the club to seek midfield signings again. If the Red Devils introduce him next summer, Gomez's transfer fee may only cost 30 million pounds, especially since Wolves are likely to be relegated from the Premier League.

But the situation in the winter window is different. The Wolves have informed incoming head coach Rob Edwards that they will not sell any top players in January, which is likely to rule out the possibility of Gomez joining Manchester United in advance. If Manchester United insists on buying in the winter window, Wolves may ask for twice the price - 60 million pounds.

This is similar to the price of Cunha who joined in the summer window, and Cunha very much hopes to become teammates with the 24-year-old Gomez again. The two were good friends in the Wolves and the Brazilian team in the past. When Cunha left Molineux Stadium in the summer window, he even gave Gomez a Rolex watch as a farewell gift.

Transfer expert Ben Jacobs said: "I don't think there is any chance of a move for Gomes mid-season as Wolves need to support their new head coach Rob Edwards. The team cannot afford to lose more players if there is a mass transfer mid-season. Without Gomez and Jorgen Strand-Larsson, the Wolves will face very big troubles. "

Gomez is unlikely to leave when the team is ranked at the bottom. Although his performance this season is not the best, he works hard and has repeatedly called on the audience to support the team, which has been recognized by the fans.

If Gomez joins Manchester United in the future, he will not describe his "dream". After all, he has publicly stated in the past that his dream club is Liverpool. In 2022, he told ESPN that he was very eager to play for Liverpool, but unfortunately he could only join Wolves. Gomez also said: "Playing in the Champions League is the biggest dream of my football career."

Brazilian Flamengo is said to be very supportive of Manchester United's introduction of Gomez, because when they sold the player, they received a 10% resale clause, and coupled with FIFA's youth training sharing mechanism, they can also get another 4% reward.

Bournemouth's Scott is the protagonist of rumors about entering Manchester United for the first time. This 22-year-old English player has just been recruited into the England national team by Tuchel. Scott has played in all 11 Premier League games for Bournemouth so far this season, starting 10 of them, and he meets Amorim's criteria for a midfielder with strong athleticism. Not only that, Scott's stepsister Maia Le Tischer plays for the Manchester United women's football team, and the two were also selected for the England team together.

Scott will join Bournemouth from Bristol City in 2023 for £25 million. Premier League transfer expert Graeme Bailey said: "Scott is gradually emerging and Manchester United is also very aware of his talent. I heard They were interested in him when he was at Bristol City and now he is developing into a very dominant player. We know that many midfielders have been linked with Manchester United, but also keep an eye on Scott, he may join many clubs, including Manchester United."
