Man United and Tottenham Scout Club Brugge Forward Nicolo Tresoldi

Scouts’ visits point to planning for a 2027 transfer with a January option if selling dynamics change.

Overview

Manchester United and Tottenham sent representatives to watch Nicolo Tresoldi in Club Brugge’s 3-2 Champions League loss to Aston Villa on Tuesday, according to TEAMtalk and reporting by multiple outlets.
Tresoldi is a 22-year-old Germany U21 international who has scored regularly in Belgium, is contracted to Club Brugge until 2029, and is valued by his club at about €45–50m.
Neither Premier League club has opened formal talks; both are gathering scouting information now with a view to a likely 2027 move but with the option to act in January if circumstances require it.
Manchester United also used the trip to continue checks on left-back Joaquin Seys and earlier rejected Everton’s deadline-day approach for Joshua Zirkzee because they had not secured a replacement.
Club Brugge’s contract leverage and the reported fee mean any transfer would require significant spending and could force Manchester United to sell a striker or reallocate transfer funds before making an approach.
