The Premier League side are targeting a deal that would see them earn £60 million ($75.1m) per year, according to The Athletic.
United have an existing relationship with Qualcomm, a company that makes telecommunications hardware including semiconductors. The club announced a deal in August 2022 to promote Qualcomm's Snapdragon subsidiary brand, which powers many of the world's premium smartphones, PCs, gaming devices, connected cars and smart wearables.
As part of the 2022 deal, Qualcomm also agreed to advise United on planned improvements to mobile connectivity at Old Trafford to enhance the matchday fan experience.
United have been looking for a new front-of-shirt sponsor since TeamViewer, a German software company, announced last year that it did not intend to renew its deal with United - a five-year deal worth £47m a year that began in 2021.
In December, United and TeamViewer have reached a mutually-beneficial agreement for the end of the deal. Manchester United can buy back the rights to the main jersey sponsorship and look for a new main sponsor.
Once a new shirt front partner is selected and takes on this role, TeamViewer AG will remain part of Manchester United’s partner ecosystem until the end of the original contract term, with an adapted scope of partnership.
Before TeamViewer, United had a £64m-per-season deal with U.S. car manufacturer Chevrolet that began in 2014.

While Mbappé tested the whiteout prototypes in training ahead of the 26-27 Madrid derby against Atlético Madrid, an official debut this weekend remains unconfirmed as the Frenchman transitions from his signature Nike Mercurials.

It features an asymmetrical sleeve design, with a solid grey right sleeve contrasting against a black left sleeve detailed with two horizontal grey bands.
