Real Madrid rebuffed Liverpool’s interest in signing the France international last year for an initial £68 million from Monaco, paving the door for Casemiro to join United later this summer.
United is looking for midfield reinforcements once more, having submitted two bids for Chelsea’s Mason Mount and considering a big move for West Ham United captain Declan Rice.
With Jude Bellingham joining Eduardo Camavinga, Fede Valverde, and Tchouameni, Real Madrid now has one of the best midfielders in the world, with the old guard of Luka Modric and Toni Kroos still firmly in the picture.
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand suggested on Vibe with Five that Tchouameni might now be the ‘odd man out’ in that star-studded midfield, pressing United to make a transfer.
Ferdinand stated on Vibe with Five about prospective United signings: ‘In midfield, you know who I would go and get? I’d go try to find Tchouameni.
