Man Utd plot bid for £40m Borussia Dortmund midfielder Felix Nmecha amid reports Red Devils also want to sign Jamie Gittens from Bundesliga side

<p>United had previously been linked with a move for Geovany Quenda, a player Amorim worked with at Sporting Lisbon, but Chelsea have since secured his signature. With that option off the table, United have now shifted their focus to Germany, where they are in pursuit of Nmecha, according to <a href="https://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/bvb-manchester-united-jagt-ploetzlich-dortmund-star-67daf8996f1fb22178520b9d" target="_blank"><em>Sport Bild. </em></a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Dortmund’s failure to secure a Champions League spot for next season could force them to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/newcastle-eddie-howe-felix-nmecha-dortmund/bltf5133304e4c5b182" target="_blank">sell at least one key player</a> to stabilise their finances. Nmecha has been one of the team’s standout performers, featuring in 27 matches across all competitions. While his numbers - <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/revealed-bizarre-instagram-clause-felix-nmecha-contract-fined-eur1m-borussia-dortmund/blt22a18acc193d2732" target="_blank">three goals and two assists</a> - may not be eye-catching, it is his calmness in possession and intelligent decision-making in midfield that have impressed potential suitors.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>While financial constraints may force Dortmund to offload players, the Bundesliga side remains hesitant about selling Nmecha, viewing him as a vital part of their future plans. The German club could instead look to cash in on other players, including goalkeeper Gregor Kobel, winger Gittens, and forward Karim Adeyemi, in an effort to retain their prized midfielder. Currently, Nmecha is sidelined with a ligament injury that has kept him out of action for the past seven weeks, but he recently returned to light training - a positive sign for clubs monitoring his recovery.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>One potential obstacle for United’s summer spending is Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations, which could impact their ability to invest heavily in new signings. However, with Amorim looking to rebuild the squad, the Red Devils will have to carefully balance their financial strategy, ensuring they can comply with FFP rules while still acquiring the reinforcements needed to compete at the highest level. But the club has recently outlined plans for a <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-stadium-boost-uk-government-keen-crack-on-building-100k-seater/blt0fe861f13ff04251" target="_blank">£2 billion stadium project,</a> which may further limit their transfer budget.</p>
