Manchester United are on the brink of a transformative financial windfall with less than two weeks left in the transfer window.

United are planning to make two more signings before the window closes.

They want a new enforcer to anchor their midfield and ensure the engine room stays robust.

Manuel Ugarte is at the top of their shortlist, but United need funds to sign him from Paris Saint-Germain.

According to Manchester World, Fulham are willing to match United’s £30 million asking price to sanction Scott McTominay’s exit.

The Cottagers have tabled two bids for McTominay, with their latest offer reaching £20m. The Red Devils rejected both proposals.

Fulham have reportedly re-opened talks with United over the Scotland international.

United remain ‘hopeful’ of adding Ugarte to their squad by using the proceeds from McTominay’s sale.

Sofyan Amrabat, Martin Zubimendi and Youssouf Fofana have been linked with a move to Old Trafford, but a deal for the Uruguay international seems more likely.

McTominay is not the only midfielder who could head out of the club.

Ajax are eyeing a reunion with Christian Eriksen, while Hannibal Mejbri is also likely to leave. Spain and France are possible destinations for the latter.

Eriksen was an unused substitute in United’s 1-0 win over Fulham in the Premier League curtain-raiser.

Hannibal was not even selected to be a part of the matchday squad. Toby Collyer was chosen ahead of him.
