Manchester United ‘fail with late Chelsea transfer hijack’

Manchester United showed interest in acquiring Tosin Adarabioyo following his exit from Fulham, but the defender ultimately chose to join Chelsea, as reported.

Chelsea has not officially announced Tosin’s signing, but the 26-year-old is said to have completed a medical, marking him as Enzo Maresca’s inaugural acquisition.

The Daily Mail suggests that Manchester United might have secured Tosin’s services if they had acted more swiftly in their transfer dealings.

Manchester United had been eyeing the free agent for some time, yet they encountered stiff competition from Newcastle United, who nearly finalized a contract before Chelsea intervened.

Reports indicate that Manchester United extended a formal offer to Tosin over the weekend, only to learn that he had already committed to Chelsea.

Tosin is anticipated to be unveiled as a Chelsea player soon, following the official announcement of his departure from Fulham.

Meanwhile, Manchester United is amidst a period of evaluation at the season’s end, which includes deliberating the tenure of manager Erik ten Hag.

Manchester United has welcomed new personnel such as Sir Dave Brailsford and technical director Jason Wilcox, aiming to recruit top talent.

The club is also considering appointing Dan Ashworth as sporting director, though the timing of this move has sparked controversy and may jeopardize the appointment.

The club has announced the departure of several players at the season’s conclusion, with Anthony Martial and Raphael Varane being the most notable among those leaving.
