Man United will be looking to add midfield reinforcements to their squad this summer, and recent reports claim the Red Devils could be lining up a shock swoop for Everton’s Amadou Onana.

According to Football Insider, Erik ten Hag has been impressed by the midfielder throughout the 2022-23 season, and he has the physical attributes that the Red Devils will be looking to add to their squad this summer.

Man United chasing Onana transfer

Man United are weighing up moves for a number of potential midfielders this summer, with Frenkie de Jong and Declan Rice reportedly ranking high on their dream transfers. However, Onana could be a more realistic addition from a United perspective, as the Toffees ace would cost a more affordable fee.

Everton are waiting until the end of the season before finalizing plans for the summer transfer window, as their Premier League status remains in the balance. It has been reported that the Toffees may be willing to offload Onana if they are relegated.

However, United may need to meet the asking price if Everton remains in the top-flight, as the Belgium international is seen as a key player that Sean Dyche wishes to build his team around.

Onana has been a standout star in a troubling campaign for Everton, as he has scored once and registered two assists in 31 outings. The 21-year-old was also named in the Belgium squad for the 2022 World Cup.
