Man United supporters have been served messages about Elliot Anderson, Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali. Three signings that all disappeared from reach. Brazilian Ederson was on his way from Atalanta, where players themselves confirmed he was ready to sign with United. Then the brakes were pressed to the bottom, uncertainty about a knee has caused the Red Devils to withdraw. It was therefore uplifting for United supporters to finally be able to get the confirmation of a signing, a reinforcement that creates great enthusiasm among the United management.

22-year-old Andrey Santos is brought in from Chelsea for around £50 million on a five-year contract.
