Manchester United transfer activity is ongoing with two deals imminent, and more incomings and outgoings being discussed.

We have all the key lines you need to know heading into a potentially busy day and week for Manchester United in the transfer market.

Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt medicals

An agreement was reached with Bayern Munich for a double deal for Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt.

United will pay an initial £38.6 million for De Ligt, the fifth highest fee the club have paid for a centre-back.

Mazraoui will cost £12.8 million. Fees of around £4 million in add-ons for both players could later be paid to Bayern.

Fabrizio Romano reports medicals for both players are booked with the intention for both deals to be completed on Monday.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka exit

A deal loosely connected to Noussair Mazraoui’s arrival is an exit for right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka, set to join West Ham.

The Athletic report Wan-Bissaka’s sale is now fully agreed and he will travel to undergo a medical at West Ham on Monday to complete his transfer.

Mario Hermoso offered

Manchester United are weighing up another transfer move in defence. A few days ago it was claimed the club held interest in former Atletico Madrid defender Mario Hermoso.

Hermoso, 29, is a free agent and The Mail report he has been offered to United, along with other clubs.

The report adds United will hold another meeting on transfers on Monday to discuss next potential moves following Mazraoui and De Ligt’s deals being agreed.

Victor Lindelof could leave

The same report claims interest is building from clubs in Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof.

Victor Lindelof’s contract expires in 2025 and he has fallen down the pecking order at Old Trafford. He started only 14 Premier League games last season.

It makes a lot of sense for United to try and cash in on the 30-year-old, and for the Sweden international captain to want to leave.

Manuel Ugarte top midfield target

With the defence strengthened, and potentially tweaked if Hermoso comes in, midfield will be the area United look to strengthen.

Fabrizio Romano reports Manuel Ugarte remains ‘the absolute number one’ target, he told his Here We Go podcast.

United view Paris Saint-Germain’s £50 million asking price as too high and hope to drive the price down.

Ugarte wants to join United, and agreed personal terms with the Red Devils in July.
