Manchester United has set its sights on signing Youssouf Fofana, a midfielder who is currently on loan at Sevilla from AC Milan. The next Manchester United signing will be a midfielder who can further enhance their rotation.

The Old Trafford board is preparing a direct financial proposal to AC Milan — the entity that holds his rights after investing 26 million euros — to interrupt the loan of the French international at Sevilla, where the player is contracted until June 30, 2027.

Michael Carrick's midfield issues and Youssouf Fofana's impact at Sevilla

Manchester United's coach, Michael Carrick, has requested immediate reinforcement in the midfield due to the limited playing time of summer signings. Andrey Santos has only played 83 minutes in the Premier League, Youri Tielemans has not reached the expected consistency, and Carlos Baleba is yet to debut this season after recovering from an injury.

In contrast, the 27-year-old midfielder has scored 1 goal in 4 LaLiga matches under Luis García's guidance at Sevilla, immediately earning a starting spot.

The loan release clause with AC Milan and the obstacle at Sánchez-Pizjuán

Despite Manchester United's interest and AC Milan coach Rubén Amorim's stance, who approved his loan departure in the 2026 summer, the loan agreement does not include a purchase option and extends until June 2027. If the British offer is accepted in January, the Italian club, which has a valid contract with the player until 2028, will have to unilaterally terminate the loan and pay financial compensation to Sevilla.

Sevilla took on the available wage margin to secure his arrival last summer and maintains the position of keeping the player until the end of the 2026-2027 season.

Financial planning at Old Trafford to persuade Milan

Manchester United's board is analyzing the final sum to present to AC Milan, aiming to also cover the expense for terminating the loan agreement in Spain. The allocated budget by the English leadership seeks to ensure a permanent acquisition without compromising the Financial Fair Play margin.

The club executives are confident that the financial injection will convince the Italian officials to negotiate the definitive transfer before the winter market closes. Manchester United representatives will engage in formal discussions with AC Milan's emissaries in November 2026.

If an agreement is reached with the Italian board, Manchester United will pay the corresponding compensation to Sevilla to finalize the midfielder's incorporation in January.
