The 2025/26 Premier League season comes to an end on Sunday, and Manchester United's attention is firmly turning to a summer window that needs to set them up for their return to the Champions League.

Who are United targeting in midfield?

Replacing Casemiro is the standout priority, with an extensive list of options on the radar. Atalanta's Ederson continues to be strongly linked with a move to Old Trafford, while Newcastle's Sandro Tonali remains a target.

Both players have featured prominently in United's transfer planning throughout the spring, alongside the likes of Elliot Anderson, Carlos Baleba, Adam Wharton and Aurelien Tchouameni, as previously reported.

Who could be leaving?

Several outgoing transfers are also expected. Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee could follow Rasmus Hojlund out of the door, after the striker sealed his £38 million permanent move to Napoli earlier this month.

What about Yan Diomande?

RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande has been mentioned in connection with United, though the headline suggests a "decision" is pending on whether to pursue the target further.
