Manchester United Revive Interest in Newcastle Midfielder Sean Longstaff Amid Summer Overhaul

Red Devils Target Midfield Reinforcements


Manchester United are preparing for a major squad revamp this summer, and one name back on their radar is Newcastle United midfielder Sean Longstaff.


The 27-year-old was previously linked with a move to Old Trafford during the Ole Gunnar Solskjær era, and he has now emerged as a cut-price transfer option for Rúben Amorim, who is expected to reshape United’s squad ahead of the 2024/25 season.


Longstaff’s Availability Could Tempt United


With Newcastle potentially needing to offload players due to Financial Fair Play (FFP) constraints, Longstaff could be available for a reasonable fee. His Premier League experience, versatility, and work rate make him a strong candidate for United’s midfield rebuild.


Amorim, widely expected to take over at Old Trafford, will likely prioritize adding depth and quality in midfield, and Longstaff’s ability to play as a box-to-box or defensive midfielder fits the profile United are looking for.


Man United’s Summer Overhaul Plans


United are expected to offload several players in the upcoming transfer window, with midfield being a key area for reinforcements. With uncertainty surrounding the futures of Casemiro, Christian Eriksen, and Scott McTominay, Longstaff could be a smart, cost-effective signing to bolster the squad.


As Manchester United gear up for a crucial summer, Longstaff’s potential arrival could be a sensible move as they aim to strengthen their midfield and build a squad capable of competing for top honours.
