The 2024/25 season was another disaster for Manchester United, finishing 15th in the Premier League, losing the Europa League final to Tottenham, and missing out on European football altogether. Ruben Amorim took charge mid-season, but the damage was already done. Once title contenders, United have slipped into mid-table struggles in recent years, prompting urgent changes this summer.
The club moved swiftly in the transfer market, bringing in high-profile signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, alongside young talent Diogo Leon. They also secured Benjamin Sesko after Rasmus Hojlund’s disappointing campaign. Manchester United are now eyeing 19-year-old Brazilian forward Ricardo Mathias. Globo Esporte, via Sport Witness, reports that club scout Alexandre Torres attended Internacional’s clash with Fluminense to watch him in action. Mathias came off the bench and showed glimpses of his talent, despite Internacional’s Copa do Brasil exit.
