The Red Devils are poised to sign a new defensive midfielder at the end of the season.

The Red Devils are not alone in the race with Bayern Munich and Liverpool<\/a> having tracked him too.<\/p>\n Sangare joined the Tricky Trees from PSV in the summer of 2023. He had a forgettable debut season and also struggled in his 2nd campaign after a lengthy hamstring injury kept him on the treatment table.<\/p>\n The Ivorian has finally found his feet in the Premier League<\/a> this season.

He has also won almost 60% of his duels, while making almost 6 recoveries and 2 tackles per league game under different managers.<\/p>\n Sangare has shown his adaptability and has been a mainstay in the heart of the midfield for Forest alongside Elliot Anderson, barring his absence last winter due to the Africa Cup of Nations with his country.<\/p>\n United are known to be interested in signing his teammate Anderson, who could be prised away for \u00a375 million<\/span><\/a>. There is a possibility that the Red Devils could pursue deals for both Sangare and Anderson this summer.<\/p>\n Casemiro is expected to depart on a free transfer at the end of the season.
