Fabrizio Romano Reveals What He’s Heard About Man Utd’s Move for PL Star

Fabrizio Romano has delivered an update on Manchester United's apparent pursuit of a Premier League star.

In recent weeks, United have experienced an upturn in form after a tough start to the 25/26 season.

Ruben Amorim's men are unbeaten in four matches, having beaten the likes of Sunderland, Liverpool and Brighton and Hove Albion.

However, their winning streak came to an end on Saturday afternoon against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.

Casemiro opened the scoring before Morgan Gibbs-White and Nicolo Savona made it 2-1. Amad Diallo levelled the match with nine minutes left of the 90.

As a result, United are now seventh in the Premier League table with 17 points.

Looking ahead, with the January transfer window on the horizon, United have been linked with a host of different players.

The Red Devils have recently been linked with West Ham United star Lucas Paqueta.

However, speaking recently on his YouTube channel, transfer specialist Romano played down the rumours.

He said: "In January, if there is the right opportunity, Paquetá could have the possibility to go and leave West Ham. So keep an eye on that one, because it’s a concrete possibility.

"Many asking about Manchester United. At the moment, I am not aware of concrete or advanced negotiations between Paquetá and Manchester United or Manchester United and West Ham."

Romano continued: "That’s what I am told at the moment on the Paquetá story. Let’s see what’s going to happen. Because Paquetá could be very interesting in terms of role, in terms of quality. But financially, West Ham are not going to give Paquetá for free or for small money."

So far in the 25/26 season, Paqueta has managed three goals and zero assists in 10 matches across all competitions for the Hammers, who have endured a difficult start to the campaign.

Paqueta and West Ham are back in Premier League action against Newcastle United at the London Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
