Transfer: Man Utd in shock move to sign Andrey Santos from Chelsea

Chelsea’s Andrey Santos is on Manchester United’s shortlist of central midfield targets.

According to Sky Sports, United’s interest in the 22-year-old is in the early stages.

The Red Devils are expected to add two more central midfielders to their squad this summer.

Michael Carrick’s side have already agreed a deal to sign Atalanta and Brazil midfielder Ederson to join them after the 2026 World Cup.

But Manuel Ugarte recently suffered a long-term injury at the tournament, while Casemiro has departed the club.

It is understood that Chelsea don’t view Santos as ‘untouchable’ and would be ready to do a deal at the right price.
