According to the latest report from British journalist Simon Stone, Manchester United has missed out on two midfielders and is still monitoring Tchouaméni, though it appears he is likely to remain at Real Madrid. Manchester United continues to evaluate transfer targets.

It is reported that Manchester United has now missed out on midfielders for the second time in a week. On June 25, Manchester City agreed with Nottingham Forest to sign Elliot Anderson for a British transfer record fee of £116 million.

Currently, Tottenham has agreed to pay West Ham United £85 million to sign Matheus Fernandes. Manchester United was interested in both players, but the cost of bringing them to Old Trafford was prohibitive.

At the start of the summer transfer window, the club made clear it was not prepared to spend £120 million on Elliot Anderson, which quickly revealed the approximate cost of acquiring the English midfielder.

Manchester United was pursuing Matheus Fernandes strongly, but after Tottenham showed interest, West Ham held firm on their asking price. Manchester United was willing to pay £85 million plus add-ons, but believed that if they made such an offer, Tottenham would counter with £90 million.

This was precisely what they desperately wanted to avoid. Manchester United also believes their approach is prudent, but as July approaches, players with expiring contracts like Casemiro and Jadon Sancho have departed, while others, particularly Marcus Rashford and André Onana, remain at Manchester United.

Manchester United has agreed with Atalanta on the signing of Ederson Silva for £35 million, but his medical examination must wait until after Brazil's Copa América matches, as he was temporarily called up to the Brazilian national team.

However, they want at least one, and possibly two, midfielders. After missing out on Matheus Fernandes, Manchester United is reassessing the situation. They have recently been linked with Alex Scott, but he is reportedly not for sale, and Bournemouth is keen to extend his contract.

Tyler Adams and Barella have also been mentioned. Another name in contention is Félix Nmecha, who is well known to academy director Wilcox, who previously headed Manchester City's academy and came from Manchester City. Tchouaméni is still being monitored, but for now appears to be staying at the Bernabéu.

There may be other options under consideration. Manchester United points to last summer's relative success as evidence that their transfer strategy is sound. André Onana is set to extend his contract with Trabzonspor for one season, but his Manchester United contract does not expire until 2028.

Marcus Rashford's contract with Manchester United also runs through 2028. Manchester United's current stance is that they will not consider loaning him back to Barcelona. Unless he finds a new club during this period, he will return to preseason training three weeks after Copa América matches.

Club executives remain calm and have rightly pointed out that there are seven weeks until Manchester United's first Premier League match of the new season and nearly nine weeks until the transfer window closes. Manchester United emphasizes that the standard for evaluating a player's value is their performance, not whether they are a big-name star.

However, whether this is enough to satisfy many fans of the club, who are excited about last season's unexpected Champions League qualification and eager for new signings, remains another matter.
