💥💥💣💣LATEST UPDATE!!

Mateus Fernandes is now considered the most likely new arrival. The Portuguese is 21 and has two seasons in the Premier League under his belt.

There is still interest in Carlos Baleba, who is 22 and has three seasons in the Premier League to his name, while United also like Alex Scott, 22, who has been in the top flight for three years with Bournemouth.

These are crucial links for a lot of United's transfer business now. They are focusing on younger players with their best years still to come and also place a premium on Premier League-proven players.

The success of Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo has only reinforced that view and it would be a big surprise if at least one of Fernandes, Baleba or Scott didn't end up at Old Trafford by the end of the transfer window.
