Fabrizio Romano claims Man United could make stunning move to sign 26-year-old West Ham star
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is reportedly a significant admirer of West Ham United midfielder Edson Alvarez.
Alvarez, who has made a strong impression in his debut Premier League season, is now on Manchester United’s radar. Despite a standout season, the 26-year-old faced disciplinary issues, accumulating 11 yellow cards in 31 games. However, he has acknowledged these mistakes and aims to improve.
West Ham fans have grown to love Alvarez for his commitment and passion, making him one of the most cherished players at the London Stadium over the past decade. New West Ham manager Julen Lopetegui is expected to revamp the squad, but Alvarez is seen as crucial to his plans.
Despite this, Alvarez has been linked with a potential move away from West Ham this summer, according to Caught Offside. Nonetheless, Alvarez hinted that he plans to stay with West Ham for at least one more season.
This was before Manchester United’s interest in him became public. The likelihood of Alvarez moving to Old Trafford is now a topic of speculation.
Known for his tough-tackling and resilience, Alvarez’s quick adaptation to the Premier League, especially coming from the Eredivisie, has been remarkable. His contract with West Ham runs until the summer of 2028, giving the club significant control over his future.
Will he still be at West Ham next season? Reports suggest that Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag highly values the Mexican international.
Fabrizio Romano has provided insights into the chances of Manchester United securing Alvarez in the summer transfer window.
