As United search for targets, we have rounded up all the latest transfer news surrounding Old Trafford.

Onana update

Inter Milan boss Simone Inzaghi is said to be fighting against the sale of Andre Onana this summer.

United are said to be targeting the goalkeeper this summer as they look to replace David De Gea, who has seen his contract expire over the course of the last few days. Onana has established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in Europe, and it’s reported Inter will demand around £60million for his signature amid reported interest from United, Chelsea and Saudi Arabia.

Inter are said to be willing to sell to fund new signings, but Tuttosport say Inzaghi is fighting internally and is keen to keep the keeper at all costs this summer.

Amrabat claim

There have been plenty of reports over recent days claiming United have agreed personal terms with Fiorentina star Sofyan Amrabat.

United have not agreed anything with Fiorentina, with the Italian club making that clear, but reports suggest the Red Devils are getting somewhere with the player himself. Though, Mundo Deportivo say otherwise, with claims Amrabat still wants to join Barcelona amid previous interest.

In fact, the report claims the Morocco World Cup star will wait for an offer from Barcelona ahead of joining United this summer.
