English media monitoring suggests two big Premier League clubs are tracking a Shakhtar player. Tribuna’s report, citing TEAMtalk on 18 August 2026, says Arsenal and Manchester United have both expressed interest in signing Kauan Elias, a forward currently on Shakhtar Donetsk’s books.
The article adds that representatives from both clubs have been involved in monitoring the situation, but it does not report any agreed fee, contract details, or a finalized offer. As with most transfer rumours at this stage, the report describes interest rather than a completed move; readers should expect confirmation only from the clubs or an official Shakhtar statement.
We will update when primary sources — the clubs or Shakhtar — publish formal announcements or when more concrete terms emerge.
