It brings a stop to a stormy spell at Old Trafford, where Sancho has struggled to find his best form and fallen out with manager Erik ten Hag.
Midfield Reinforcement Crosshairs on Fabian Ruiz
Manchester United will put together an offer for Fabian Ruiz, the impressive Spanish midfielder at Paris Saint-Germain. According to TEAMtalk, the Red Devils want Ruiz to introduce control and experience to their midfield ahead of Christian Eriksen and Casemiro's potential exits.
Al-Nassr also want him, but United are hopeful about a Premier League return appealing to Ruiz.
Ollie Watkins Eyed as Rashford's Successor
With Marcus Rashford now seemingly the target of a potential transfer to Bayern Munich, Manchester United are turning attention to Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins as a backup. Roy Keane has praised the work rate and versatility of Watkins, and insiders affirm Erik ten Hag has approved the deal.

Watkins, who scored 19 Premier League goals in the previous season, would cost the Red Devils more than £60 million.
Bryan Mbeumo Deal in the Pipeline
Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo is becoming a credible target for Manchester United. United have reportedly already made a number of offers and are looking to conclude the signing before their pre-season on July 7.
Mbeumo's speed, dexterity, and eye for goal make him a perfect fit for United's strike force.
Marcus Rashford May Leave for Bayern Munich
In a surprise twist, Bayern Munich are reportedly monitoring Marcus Rashford's status at Old Trafford. With Rashford's performance last season having stalled, United would consider selling if the price was met. This would make room for signings like Watkins or even for a bold offer for Victor Osimhen deeper into the window.
Antony to Real Betis on the Table
Although not finished, Antony can be sold or loaned to Real Betis. Their club is interested, but it depends on whether they can cover his wage. If United underwrite some of it, the move can happen within a few weeks.
What's Next for United This Transfer Window?
Manchester United's transfer strategy seems to be:
- Offloading underperforming assets (Sancho, Antony)
- Consolidating the midfield (Ruiz)
- Frontline reinforcement (Watkins, Mbeumo)
- Management of wage structure and pre-season build-up
With the 2025/26 season approaching, Erik ten Hag is keen to build a well-rounded, dynamic team.
Closing Thoughts
These Manchester United transfer news headlines are representative of a club not merely reacting, but indeed planning for a bold revamp. With Sancho departed, Ruiz and Watkins arriving, and some of their top players under the radar for exit monitoring, the next few weeks may redefine United's course.
