Is there any source other than Talksport for this?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Nope, next I'm gonna post 'di Maria vibes' and keep going until one sticks.
Get in! What an unreal signing this would be. Would totally transform our team and is exactly what we need! WELL DONE MANCHESTER UNITED.
What position does he play?
What position does he play?
We already needed a forward and now we're getting rid of Ronaldo
Hope talksport got the fee wrong there
Gonna admit at the outset i know very little about him - seems a bit of different info on whether he is a winger or forward. So maybe this is instead of Antony?
But Atletico signed him 2 years ago for £23m and he's only played 29 games for them, scoring 6 goals. And no goals in 7 games for Brazil..
So that seems a hell of a lot of money. But maybe they've included all add ons, agents fees etc.
A good age though.

Who ?
Is he a cf or a lw/rw ?

Signs for AM for 23m, scores 6 goals in the following 12 months and united sign him for 50m. Yep, sounds like a united transfer alright.
2 functioning legs 
We definitely do need attackers that are able to press from the front
Very versatile. Can play in any of the forward positions.
He’s a player of the football, he does a mean footballing.
21.70 pressures per 90 min?Those pressing stats
The rest of our forward line is going to be so confused watching this guy chasing everything down 
Hope he's an actual Brazilian? We've just about managed to sign every non-Brazilian Brazilian that has ever existed.
21.70 pressures per 90 is Firmino level.Those pressing stats
Reckon he's the Rashford replacement not Ronaldo.
Even RW?!?
No idea what he's like. Fbref seems to imply he works hard which is nice. Reading some others, more a versatile forward than a #9. Right footed. We still need a target man and I actually really want Morata, but we'll see.
Ronaldo out and someone in and fine whatever. Also get midfielders in please.

His technique his excellent. His only problem is that he tends to be too risky on several occasions, so I'm not sure if he necessarily suits ten Hag's football down to a tee.
He can play all across the front line though likes to occupy the inside left areas.
Ah, I got it. Real Rojo vibes for me, South American isn’t he..
That's how to muppet
A decent footballer, actually a good signing.
Naturally, I would say second striker or central attacking midfielder. The people comparing him with Firmino have a point.
We're signing a striker who's in his early 20s and can be arsed running around and Liverpool are losing?
I give it 20 minutes before he's told us to feck off and it's 4-1.

Is he even an out and out 9? Looks more like a second striker type of Fernandes area of the pitch?
I rate this comment. I genuily think United are monitoring SM and have some sort of fan approval rating. So if enough fans say target xyz is good they will buy him.
Silva isn’t a starter for city..
Rvp vibes
Since when did anyone believe talksport?
Assuming Atletico doesn't need him because they have Correia and Felix as similar mould of attackers. 50m sounds way too much though.
Hopefully this means Ronaldo goes the other way.

First tweet in the thread says he's keen to join United
Isn’t Talksport crap for transfers? A signing is a signing but I’ll wait for more reliable links I think.

He’s not prolific but he’ll be a huge upgrade on Rashford.
Has a bad attitude unless Simeone has fixed that at Atletico.
I remember him from his time at Hertha. He obviously had lots of talent to burn and was the best player on that team. one of those players to have on your fantasy team for his productivity.
however, I also remember behavioral issues

Maybe it's a typo and it's 5m euros, not 50
