There’s all the eyes in tonight’s Europa League semi-finals, but there’s another interesting Man United news that could be a busy summer transfer window.
The Red Devils seem to have plans on how to strengthen their defense as several different names approach.
The latest from Spanish outlet Fichejjes is that Barcelona is wary of Man UTD, lowering the asking price for Ronald Araujo.
A key figure within Old Trafford is extremely enthusiastic about Uruguay International, and now appears to be available for just 50 million euros.
Barcelona’s Ronald Araujo’s transfer stance explained
Araujo was a key player in Barca, so it’s probably a surprise to see him available in the market for just 50 million euros, as Fichajes reports.
However, this article explains that this is due to Barcelona’s ongoing financial issues, which perhaps gives United an exciting opportunity to strengthen their defense.
Araujo could certainly be a regular starter for MUFC, even if there is already a suitable alternative for him on Hanshiflic’s team.
Manchester United are also looking at other defenders
Another report from Fichajes again today has drawn United into another top defensive player from Intermilan’s Yambisek.
Whether it’s Araujo or Bisek, it seems like a good idea for the club to bring in new people this summer.
Reuben Amorim plays three behind him, but now he appears to lack the depth to make that formation work.
Lisandro Martinez is more likely to get injured. This means that Noussair Mazraoui and other players often had to play from positions to fill out there.
Araujo or Bisseck gives United an upgrade, so fans hope one of these deals happens.
