Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Real Madrid winger Vinícius Júnior as part of their plans to strengthen the squad.
As reported by İdman.Biz, citing Spanish outlet Fichajes, newly appointed Manchester United manager Mauricio Pochettino has identified the Brazilian international as one of his priority transfer targets.
The Argentine coach reportedly views Vinícius as a key figure in his attacking plans and believes the winger could play a central role in building a competitive team capable of challenging for major trophies.
Manchester United are closely monitoring the 26-year-old's situation at Real Madrid, where his future has become increasingly uncertain.
According to the report, Vinícius is no longer considered an automatic starter at the Spanish club, a development that has further increased United's interest in securing his services.
However, the Premier League giants could face competition from Arsenal, who are also keeping a close eye on the Brazilian forward.
Manchester United may make a formal move if Real Madrid indicate their willingness to negotiate a transfer.
Vinícius has been one of Real Madrid's most influential attacking players in recent years, playing a crucial role in the club's domestic and European successes, including their Champions League triumphs in 2022 and 2024.
The Brazilian remains under contract with Real Madrid until June 30, 2032, meaning any potential transfer would require substantial negotiations between the clubs.
