Manchester United Eye Felix Nmecha as Ruben Amorim Looks to Rebuild Team

Manchester United are interested in signing Felix Nmecha from Borussia Dortmund as Ruben Amorim seeks to rebuild his squad. The 24-year-old midfielder has made 39 appearances for the German club this season and has impressed in the Club World Cup, but Dortmund are reportedly unwilling to sell him for a fee of £42m (£50m euros). United are said to be testing the club's resolve with a £40m (£48m euros) offer.

Nmecha, who spent much of his youth career with Manchester City, would already be familiar with the surroundings at Old Trafford. He featured three times for City before moving to Werder Bremen in 2021. The midfielder played for the Three Lions' age-group sides before switching to Germany at both club and international level, making his senior debut in March 2023. His older brother Lukas recently signed for Leeds United as a free agent, and a move to United this summer would represent another type of synergy for the Nmecha brothers.
