Manchester United Eye Surprise Move to Sign PL Striker on a Free Transfer
GREATER MANCHESTER, ENGLAND, JUL 5 – Manchester United aim to add Calvert-Lewin as a cost-effective backup striker after a low-scoring season, with the 28-year-old free agent having scored 71 goals in nine years at Everton.
Manchester United is set to offer a deal to sign former Everton forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who became a free agent in July 2025.
Calvert-Lewin left Everton after his contract expired at the end of the 2024/25 season following an "incredibly difficult" decision to seek a new challenge.
The 28-year-old played 273 matches for Everton, scoring 71 goals with 22 assists, and earned 11 England appearances scoring four goals.
Meanwhile, United signed Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5 million and maintain ongoing negotiations to acquire Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo amid fee disagreements.
United aim to revamp their forward line for the 2025/26 season after a disappointing 2024/25 without Champions League football, hoping Calvert-Lewin adds Premier League experience and goals.
