Manchester United want Tosin Adarabioyo
United have made an approach to secure the services of the 26-year-old centre back on a free transfer this summer, as per exclusive reports from TEAMtalk. The Red Devils are said to face competition from Tottenham Hotspur in their pursuit of Adarabioyo.
Adarabioyo has emerged as a key figure in Fulham’s backline after having impressed since his move to Craven Cottage in 2020 from Manchester City. Thus, garnering attention from top-flight clubs.
Negotiations have thus far proven unsuccessful despite Fulham’s efforts to extend his contract. Which has now left the door open for United and other suitors to make their move.

Man United in Need of Defensive Revamp
With defensive frailties plaguing United’s campaign, the potential signing of Adarabioyo could address some of the team’s pressing needs. Alongside reported interest in Jarrad Branthwaite, United seem determined to shore up their defensive options ahead of the new season.
As Adarabioyo weighs his options, the allure of European football with Tottenham Hotspur may vie against the promise of regular playing time at Old Trafford. For the Englishman, born and bred in Manchester, the decision holds significant weight.
With negotiations ongoing and both clubs vying for his signature, Adarabioyo’s future hangs in the balance as the summer transfer window approaches. Stay tuned for further developments as the saga unfolds.
