Manchester United are about to make a big rebuild in their hands this summer and catapult the club towards its previous glory within the Premier League.
Reuben Amorim has done a great job at Old Trafford to stop corruption and has already implemented his 3-4-2-1 system at the club, looking to change his recent fate.
They still occupy the lower half of the table, but the 40-year-old led the Red Devils to the Europa League final, facing the Englishman Tottenham Hotspur at the end of the month.
If they insist on another victory in Bilbao, the club will be featured in the Champions League despite their low position, giving supporters a glimpse of joy in a miserable year.
If he is fully competitive in 2025/26, Amorim will need new additions to help him explore, and many players have already linked with the switch to Old Trafford.
The latest on hunting for United’s new signatures this summer
Matheus Cunha has been United’s most linked player in recent weeks, and Brazilian international could potentially add a summer window first.
The latest update on his future revealed that the hierarchy is in consultation with his representatives about the northwest movement.
However, the only player on this window’s list is not 25 years old. PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma has emerged as a key manager option this summer, according to the Spanish outlet.
The report claims the Red Devils are preparing a £50 million bid for the 26-year-old during the offseason, and are trying to bolster options in the goalkeeping division.
The club is also confirming that he is trying to capitalize on his current situation in a Ligue 1 outfit, which has his contract expired in the summer of 2026.
Why United’s £50 million goal is the best since Bruno
Bruno Fernandez has been United’s shining light throughout 2024/25, often producing goods at key moments, helping Amorim’s teams reach the Europa League finals.
Portugal’s International has registered a combined goal of 36 goals, surpassing 53 appearances, heads and tails above the tally produced by other first team members.
Such forms claim that former Red Devils star Gary Neville is the only player to live up to expectations after the 30-year-old moved to Old Trafford in the past decade.
This quote is hardly a surprise given the fact that he joined Sports CP in January 2020 and has registered and supported at least 20 goals in combination for every season he spent in Manchester.
However, Donnarumma could be the club’s best signature since Fernandez. This summer we will be moving to the club and greatly improving the options available to our managers.
Andre Onana was the biggest option during this campaign, but often questioned his mistakes, bringing five errors in every competition.
The Italian contract handed the sides the extra quality, and his magical moment handed the Red Devils the extra quality they had craved in such a division.
Labeled “World Class” by Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti, Donnaruma averages 2.2 saves per 90 people (which can produce flashes of individual glow) as seen against Arsenal in the Champions League.
He also completes 87% of the passes he attempts, allowing Amorim’s side to play from behind, zeroing out errors leading to goals – passing the club a reliable option between sticks.

The “keeper” also showed his quality to prevent penalties, making two important saves in a penalty shootout against the UK in the final of the Euro 2020, with the Italians certainly a huge part of the club’s rebuilding.
It will be interesting to see if the Ligue 1 outfits will entertain them with selling their number one this summer.
However, if he was given a green light to switch to England, it could be a catalyst for success that he endured in the coming years, and would undoubtedly land one of the best talents in his position.
