Bayer Leverkusen officially respond to Manchester United transfer claim

Manchester United have enjoyed another busy summer transfer window.

However, many supporters still believe further reinforcements are needed.

The Red Devils have already completed the signings of Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans and highly-rated youngster Tynan Thompson.

Meanwhile, Karl Darlow and Kit Margetson have strengthened the goalkeeping department.

Attention has now turned towards further additions.

Manchester United have been continuing to search for a third midfielder before the transfer window closes.

Supporters have also kept a close eye on social media, where transfer speculation often spreads rapidly during the summer.

Bayer Leverkusen have also been active in the market over recent months.

Earlier this year, the Bundesliga side officially tied down Edmond Tapsoba to a new long-term contract until 2031.

That announcement ended any lingering speculation over his future after previous links with United.

Now, the German club have found themselves interacting with another transfer-related post involving the Red Devils.

Bayer Leverkusen ask Manchester United one question

Bayer Leverkusen’s official X account responded to a supporter joking that Manchester United would sign him within 24 hours.

The fan wrote: “I need to be signed i give you guys 24hrs before man United sign me.”

Leverkusen then joined in with the joke by replying: “What are you offering, @ManUtd?”

The exchange was clearly made in a light-hearted manner rather than referring to any genuine transfer interest from United.

Despite that, the post quickly caught the attention of supporters.

Many enjoyed seeing the Bundesliga club’s official social media account getting involved.

Manchester United are no strangers to becoming the subject of transfer jokes given the club’s global profile and the frequency with which they are linked to players during every transfer window.

With Carrick still hoping to strengthen his squad before the deadline, speculation surrounding potential arrivals is unlikely to slow down anytime soon.

For now, though, this latest interaction was simply a humorous exchange between Leverkusen’s official X account and a support rather than any indication of real transfer business involving the Red Devils.
