Signing Premier League-proven talent has proven to be a massive hit for Manchester United.
Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, both signed from Premier League sides, have clearly elevated the Red Devils. United’s attack was their major weakness before the summer of 2025. Landing the duo, along with Benjamin Sesko, has now turned this position into one of United’s greatest strengths.
Heading into this summer’s transfer window, a wise INEOS would definitely prioritise Premier League stars to address their transfer needs.
INEOS keen on PL talent
There have already been links to Premier League talent. Elliott Anderson and Sandro Tonali are being targeted to bolster the midfield. Murillo, Cristian Romero, and Micky van de Ven are top defensive targets.
Meanwhile, Ilman Ndiaye is a left-winger target.
But it is not just them; the Manchester Reds are watching plenty of Premier League stars, with the latest to pop up on their radar being Fulham’s Harry Wilson. Wilson has been so impressive this season that it is as though he has finally hit his prime.
The 29-year-old forward’s movement and decision-making have been top-class this season. He has directly influenced games, and the Cottagers are reaping the rewards of his creativity. Wilson already has 18 goal contributions: 11 goals and 7 assists in the Premier League. He has been absolutely class.
His brilliance has not gone unnoticed, with Teamtalk reporting that a long list of Premier League sides are keen on his services.
Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Leeds United and Sunderland are all keen on his services. Liverpool could also try to bring him back to Anfield.
Man United also keen on Harry Wilson
However, as those sides look to sway the Wales star, United, as per the UK outlet, are a team to watch.
Teamtalk confirms: “We are also told that Manchester United are keeping an eye on the situation. Wilson has truly emerged as one of the most intriguing free agents for a long time.
“Wilson is now facing a major decision over his future, and his people are due to engage in talks in the coming weeks to lock down the options.”
A move for Wilson makes perfect sense for United, not just because he is quality and Premier League-proven, but also because he can be snapped up on a free transfer.
Wilson’s deal at Craven Cottage expires in the summer, leaving him free to choose his next club.
Perfect option if United miss out on top winger targets
Hopefully, United convince him to sign, as he could offer them the left-wing option they crave, serving as a back-up plan should a marquee winger deal fall through.
With bolstering the midfield at the top of United’s agenda and a huge chunk of the transfer budget set to be spent there, it is uncertain whether United will go toe-to-toe with European heavyweights in the race for top wingers like Yan Diomande and Ndiaye.
So, if the 20-time English champions fall short in those transfer battles, a move for Wilson on a free transfer could be the perfect move to pull off.
