Will Pierre Kalulu transfer to Manchester United in 2026?

According to reporting by Tribal Football, Manchester United is interested in signing French defender Pierre Kalulu, currently under contract with Juventus until 2029. In response, Juventus is reportedly preparing a new improved contract offer in an effort to block the potential move. Kalulu has made 25 Serie A appearances this season, contributing two goals and three assists, though he was recently sent off in a match against Inter. The situation reflects a common transfer-market dynamic: an English Premier League club targeting a key defender, while the current club attempts to secure the player long-term. The uncertainty lies in whether Manchester United will formalize its interest with a concrete offer strong enough to convince both Juventus and the player—or whether an improved contract in Turin will neutralize the transfer speculation before the summer window.
