With that being said, here are the latest transfer rumors surrounding Manchester United on 27th May, 2021.

Manchester United reportedly already have plans for their summer transfer business. The Red Devils are looking to strengthen across the park with reinforcements in defense, midfield and attack.

According to The Guardian, Manchester United are ready to splash the cash and are eyeing moves for five players in the transfer window. Their shortlist includes Villarreal's Pau Torres, Real Madrid defender Raphael Varane, West Ham's Declan Rice, Borussia Dortmund star Jadon Sancho and Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane.

Completing the five transfers would cost Manchester United upwards of £300 million, but it remains to be seen how many deals they can get over the line.

Borussia Dortmund have reportedly set their asking price for Jadon Sancho, with Manchester United being heavily linked with a move for the winger.

According to Sport BILD, Dortmund would be willing to let Sancho leave if an offer of around £82 million is made by Manchester United, a huge reduction from what their asking price was last summer.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is a huge admirer of the winger and wants to add Sancho to his attack.

Manchester United are reportedly planning to offer David de Gea in a swap deal for Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak. The Spaniard's performances have massively regressed this season and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is open to moving on from the shot-stopper.

According to The Sun, Manchester United will look to include De Gea in a player-plus-cash swap for Atletico Madrid's Jan Oblak. The Slovenian would have cost the Red Devils around £70 million, but they hope that including De Gea in the deal would significantly reduce the La Liga champions' asking price.
