Manchester United are reportedly assessing the possibility of signing Nottingham Forest midfielder Ibrahim Sangar\u00e9 as part of their ongoing squad planning ahead of the summer transfer window.

\nAccording to Football Insider<\/a>, the Ivory Coast international has caught the attention of United\u2019s scouting department following a series of consistent performances in the Premier League this season.<\/p>\n

United are carefully evaluating multiple midfield targets<\/a> while preparing for what could be another significant recruitment drive under the club\u2019s evolving sporting structure.<\/p>\n

Sangar\u00e9 is believed to be among several players under consideration<\/a>, although any potential move may depend on whether the club first secures other priority targets higher on their transfer shortlist.<\/p>\n

Sangare\u2019s role at Nottingham Forest<\/h2>\n

Sangar\u00e9 has been an important presence in Nottingham Forest\u2019s midfield since joining the club from PSV Eindhoven. Known for his physicality, defensive awareness, and ball-winning ability, the 28-year-old has developed a reputation as a reliable defensive midfielder capable of shielding the back line.<\/p>\n

During the 2025\/26 season, Sangar\u00e9 has made 32 appearances across all competitions, playing a central role in Forest\u2019s midfield structure. His ability to break up opposition attacks and recycle possession has made him a valuable component of the team\u2019s tactical setup.<\/p>\n

Sangar\u00e9\u2019s performances have not gone unnoticed. Several Premier League clubs have reportedly monitored the midfielder in recent seasons, recognising his ability to combine strength with technical composure.<\/p>\n

Man United\u2019s interest in Sangar\u00e9 shows an effort to reinforce the midfield department.<\/p>\n

The club has been evaluating options capable of providing defensive stability while also supporting younger midfield talents already within the squad.<\/p>\n

United\u2019s recruitment team is believed to be exploring a variety of profiles for the position.<\/p>\n

Alongside Sangar\u00e9, reports have also linked the club with his Nottingham Forest teammate Elliot Anderson, who has impressed with his creativity and energy in midfield.<\/p>\n

The pursuit of Sangar\u00e9 would likely be part of a wider strategy aimed at strengthening depth and balance within the squad as United aim to compete more consistently at the top level.<\/p>\n

The signing of midfielder at Old Trafford is also linked with the impending departure of Casemiro who is set to move at the end of the season.<\/p>\n
