Manchester Man Utd should explore deal for Oumar Solet amid Jarrad Branthwaite speculation

Manchester United could sign a new centre-back when the transfer window reopens this summer.

The Red Devils are preparing for a busy summer transfer window, and there could be plenty of changes to the squad.

From the defence point of view, Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans could leave on free transfers at the expiry of their contracts.

Lisandro Martinez sustained a serious knee injury earlier this year. The Argentine may not return until the final quarter of 2025.

United need a marquee centre-back signing this summer, with manager Ruben Amorim set to stick with his 3-4-3 set-up.

The club have been linked with a fresh approach for Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite, who could be on the move later this year.

The Englishman was valued at £70 million by the Toffees last summer, and his price could be higher in the next transfer window.
