Manchester United are in talks over a deal for Anthony Milabo
According to German Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg, Manchester United are interested in signing Anthony Milabo from Feyenoord. The 19-year-old has been with the Dutch side since 2014, coming through the club’s youth academy before moving to the first team in 2023.
The versatile midfielder, who has won two caps for the Netherlands under-21s, made his first-team debut in the 2022/23 season but didn’t really establish himself in the first team until last season. Milabo played 13 times for Feyenoord in all competitions, appearing in both the Champions League and Europa League.
Plettenberg states that United consider Milabo a future transfer target as he has been on their shortlist for some time. There have been internal discussions at Old Trafford about signing the midfielder, who can operate as a winger as well as a central midfielder, as both a number ten and eight.
The Red Devils are continuing to monitor the Dutchman as he is seen as someone who is a ‘perfect fit’ for what the club are looking for in the future. United have gathered information on Milambo and he is now on their shortlist for what looks like a move in the summer of 2025. However, Feyenoord may have other ideas as he is under contract until 2027.
