It is reported that Manchester United has begun negotiations to sign French star Omar Solet from Udinese this summer. After ranking 15th in the Premier League, the Red Devils are ready to make changes in the summer and they will strengthen their defense.

According to Italian media Messaggero Veneto, Manchester United has contacted Udinese to discuss Omar Solet. The former French U-20 international also has interest from West Ham and Bournemouth, and his Italian team hopes to sell him.

After leaving Austrian giants Salzburg, Solet joined Udinese as a free agent in January and quickly became an indispensable member of Udinese. The 25-year-old made 19 appearances for the club, and his defense consists of three, mimicking the system Ruben Amorim used at Old Trafford.

Manchester United is about to lose Evans, who has announced his retirement and Lindelof, whose contract expires this month. Solett is a great point guard and his addition will relieve the pressure on junior talent Lennie Yoro to play every week.

The Red Devils learned from preliminary negotiations with Serie A team that it will cost about £34 million to introduce Solet this summer. Udinese hopes to move him out as soon as possible and make a huge profit, and the defender is eager to test himself in one of Europe's largest clubs.

At the same time, Manchester United confirmed that it has signed star forward Cunia

Manchester United has announced their deal with Wolves' transfer star forward Cunia this summer. The Brazilian international will join the Red Devils in the preseason after he agreed to terminate his contract for £62.5 million.

Cunha will become the first player to sign up for the Red Devils in the summer and the first attacker under Amorim. The 26-year-old has agreed to a five-year contract to 2030, and he can choose to extend it for another 12 months until 2031.

Cunha scored 17 goals for Wolves in the 2024-25 season, arousing interest in him in various parts of the Premier League. Nottingham Forest, Arsenal and Newcastle were all interested in the former Atletico player before he agreed to join the Red Devils.

Manchester United are looking for a striker in the market to replace Cunha, with many names on their shortlist. After a poor league performance in the 2024-25 season, they will seek to add more players.
