Manchester United Target PSG Defender Lucas Beraldo in €30 Million Transfer Push
Brazilian centre-back seeks exit as Red Devils eye defensive reinforcements
Manchester United have emerged as frontrunners in the pursuit of Paris Saint-Germain defender Lucas Beraldo, with the Brazilian signalling his intention to leave the French champions following the Club World Cup.
According to French outlet L’Équipe, Beraldo is seeking a larger role and has expressed a desire to depart PSG this summer. United, under new coach Rúben Amorim, are monitoring the situation closely and preparing to launch a formal bid.

Amorim Gives Green Light as United Plan Defensive Overhaul
Sources close to Old Trafford confirm that Amorim has approved Beraldo’s signing as part of a broader strategy to strengthen the squad and restore the club’s competitiveness in domestic and European competitions.
While no official offer has yet been submitted, Manchester United are expected to open talks in the coming weeks. PSG, for their part, are open to negotiations but are demanding a minimum transfer fee of €30 million for the 20-year-old.
Beraldo’s Exit Marks PSG Transition
Beraldo, who joined PSG in early 2024, has found playing time limited under Luis Enrique and is reportedly eager for a move to the Premier League, where he believes his development can accelerate.
The young Brazilian is highly rated for his composure on the ball, left-footed passing range, and defensive versatility—traits that fit well with Amorim’s tactical blueprint.
Summer Move Expected
With Manchester United seeking to bolster their backline after a turbulent 2024/25 campaign, Beraldo’s arrival could be one of the key defensive additions in the coming window. The Red Devils are also evaluating other defensive targets, but Beraldo is believed to be among the top priorities.
A deal could materialize quickly once formal negotiations begin, especially if PSG soften their stance or accept a structured offer with performance-related bonuses.
