Man Utd target Camavinga and Berge for midfield overhaul

Manchester United have identified Real Madrid's Eduardo Camavinga and Fulham's Sander Berge as potential midfield signings to further strengthen Michael Carrick's squad. The club has already secured two midfielders this summer: Andrey Santos in a £48m deal from Chelsea and Youri Tielemans for £35m from Aston Villa. However, with Casemiro having departed and Manuel Ugarte ruled out for a prolonged period due to a knee ligament injury, United is considering adding another midfielder.

Camavinga's situation at Real Madrid

Camavinga, 23, is believed to favour staying at Real Madrid, though the Spanish club may be open to selling the Frenchman to make space for Rodri. Camavinga has three years left on his contract and was not part of France's World Cup squad. He has a €1bn release clause, but Real would listen to offers between €50m-€60m (£42m-£51m), according to sources.

Berge's potential move

Sander Berge, 28, has previously been on United's radar and would cost around £40m. Unlike Camavinga, Berge has considerable playing experience in England. The Norwegian signed for Sheffield United in 2020, joined Burnley in 2023, and left for Fulham the following year. Berge played in Norway's 2-1 World Cup quarter-final loss to England.
