While Chelsea currently appears to be leading the race for his signature, United could enter the fray if they decide to walk away from the Mount deal. Caicedo has impressed at Brighton, showcasing his technical abilities and versatility in midfield.

Joao Palhinha

Palhinha, who currently plays for Fulham, is known for his defensive contributions but also possesses attacking qualities. United could be drawn to his ability to complement the defensive duties of Casemiro in midfield.

However, the likelihood of this move is slightly lower due to Palhinha’s recent arrival at Fulham and the club’s potential high valuation of the player.

Adrien Rabiot

United’s interest in the French midfielder is well-documented, and Rabiot’s contract with Juventus has expired, making him available on a free transfer.

While Rabiot has had his share of controversies, his talent and experience could make him an appealing addition to the United midfield. Playing alongside Casemiro could bring out the best in the France international.

Leon Goretzka

With Bayern Munich in search of a new central midfielder, Leon Goretzka’s place in the squad is uncertain. United has taken notice of the situation and Ten Hag is keen on bringing the German midfielder to Old Trafford.

Bayern might be open to selling Goretzka at a lower price to accommodate their incoming signings.

Ryan Gravenberch

A highly talented and young midfielder, Gravenberch was previously sought after by several top European clubs during his time at Ajax.

However, his move to Bayern Munich hasn’t gone as planned, leading to speculation about his future. With the connection between Ten Hag and Gravenberch from their Ajax days, United could have an advantage over other interested clubs, including rivals Liverpool.

As negotiations for Mason Mount continue, Manchester United is actively exploring alternative options to strengthen their midfield.

The club’s pursuit of these talented players indicates their determination to secure the right signings for the upcoming season.
