Manchester United is reportedly eyeing a move for AS Monaco defender Vanderson, who is valued at £52 million, amid interest from several top clubs. The Brazilian is rumored to be faster than Marcus Rashford, adding to his appeal as a potential signing.

After a shaky start to the season, with two wins and four losses, Manchester United eased some pressure on manager Erik ten Hag by securing a strong victory against Southampton over the weekend. Despite adding five players during the summer transfer window, the club appears to be in the market for further reinforcements.

While Vanderson has attracted attention from Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Manchester United, Chelsea is currently leading the race for his signature. The Ligue 1 side is reportedly seeking between €35–40 million (approximately £29–35 million) for the player, who could be seen as an upgrade over Diogo Dalot.

Additionally, United is monitoring Martin Baturina of Dinamo Zagreb, who previously rejected a move to Leeds United. The club has been keeping tabs on him during recent international breaks.

Another name linked with Manchester United is Karim Adeyemi, an attacker for Borussia Dortmund. The 22-year-old has garnered praise for his speed, clocking in at 36.30 km/h, making him faster than Rashford. Adeyemi has already made an impact this season, recording two goals and one assist in just three Bundesliga games.

Although his contract with Dortmund runs until 2027, Adeyemi’s name has surfaced in transfer discussions, especially as United considers future options for the forward line. With Antony’s position at the club under scrutiny, Adeyemi could be seen as a potential replacement.

As the transfer window approaches, Manchester United’s pursuit of these talented players will be intriguing, especially as they seek to bolster their squad for the remainder of the season.
