Manchester United’s midfield remains a key priority under Ruben Amorim as the summer transfer window looms.
With the midfield performances recently coming under scrutiny, Amorim is keen on adding more energy and dynamism to the squad, and also looking to move on several players.
United’s scouting network has been working overtime, particularly focusing on defensive midfielders who can provide stability and add a new dimension to the team.
With a host of top midfield targets on the horizon, Amorim and his team are also considering options that have a proven track record in the Premier League.
After a difficult first season at Bayern Munich, it looks like Joao Palhinha’s agent is working to get his client back to the Premier League.
According to CaughtOffside, the Portugal international is likely to be offered to the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United.
Having struggled for regular playing time at Bayern, Palhinha’s representatives look to be exploring a return to England, with other top-flight clubs such as West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and his former club Fulham also possibly among the teams to watch out for.

Bayern could be prepared to let Joao Palhinha go after just one season, with the Bundesliga giants instead prioritising a new contract for Leon Goretzka as he forms a key part of their midfield.
Joao Palhinha was immense during his time at Fulham, and it’s easy to see why Premier League links are emerging ahead of the summer.
There is nothing concrete just yet, but it is understood that a return to the Premier League is Palhinha’s priority, and big names like Arsenal and United are likely to be approached to assess their interest in a potential deal.
The 29-year-old looked like he would be a fine signing for Bayern, but it just hasn’t quite worked out for him, even if he’ll still surely have admirers in England.
Palhinha would surely be welcomed back to Craven Cottage, but it’s also easy to imagine him being a major upgrade on someone like Casemiro at Old Trafford.
Arsenal, meanwhile, might also do well to consider Palhinha if he is indeed offered to them, as they have both Thomas Partey and Jorginho out of contract this summer.
