The body was found after police were asked to report someone who was “difficult” in the water at Salford Wharf.
After 6 p.m. Saturday, paramedics and a team of experts rushed to the beach near Media City.
About four hours later, Greater Manchester Police said the body was found but had not yet been recovered from the water.
It happens earlier in the day after a firefighter helps a young man struggling underwater in another incident.
The GMP statement states:
“We have not yet officially confirmed the identity, but we believe this is the person the ambulance staff are looking for.
“Our officers have updated their families and are receiving support during this very difficult time.
“The cord remains the same.”
Earlier this week, a 24-year-old woman died after several paddle boarders got into trouble underwater at Conwy Morfa Beach in North Wales.
Emma Louise Powell from Llandudno was one of two people taken by ambulance to Ysbyty Gwynes. She died in hospital on Thursday.
A 16-year-old boy has also died after becoming trapped in a canal in West Yorkshire.
Alfie McCraw of Wakefield went missing Wednesday.
Police, ambulances and firefighters arrived at the scene to search for his body.
This has led paramedics to warn of the dangers of swimming in hot weather.
Nicksmart said: “We are working with the Canal & River Trust to inform the school ahead of the holidays and warn of the dangers of open water swimming.
“It’s expected to be warmer over the weekend into next week, but don’t get cold in open water unless you’re in a swim watch area.
Even during the summer, the open waters can be very cold.
“People who suddenly get into cold water are susceptible to hyperventilation and can cause cramps.
“There can also be unseen hazards that swimmers can get caught in, such as hidden streams, mud banks and underwater objects.
Jimmy Fitt, West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service District Station Commander, said: Swimmers are facing difficulties.
“We know that people of all ages need to be aware of the risks. We know we want to be submerged in hot weather, but we should only do it in designated places that are safe. It can have fatal consequences.”
