Manchester United will be interested in signing sports CP defender Zeno Debast in the coming months.
A report from Fichejes said he hopes to sign the 21-year-old Belgian central defender in January, claiming he could file an offer of nearly 40 million euros. The Belgian has a release clause of 80 million euros on his contract. It will be interesting to see if Sports CP is willing to sanction his departure.
Man United faces debest competition
Meanwhile, Manchester United will also face competition between Arsenal and Aston Villa. Both clubs are closely monitoring players. Borussia Dortmund and Napoli also pay attention to his progress. It will be interesting to see where the Belgians end.
The opportunity to move to Manchester United is extremely exciting for him. They are one of the largest clubs in the world and he can play alongside quality players. Reuben Amorim knows the players well and playing under a Portuguese manager is very appealing to players. It is still unknown how the situation will develop.
Zeno Debast may cost a premium
He is a valuable young prospect with a bright future, and the sports CP would not want to lose him in a bargain. They may ask players for a premium. However, he is a young player and it is unlikely that Manchester United will pay near his clause. Sports CPs must be reasonable for their demands to move.
Meanwhile, Arsenal is already in stock in its defensive units. They have enough depth to defend and cannot accommodate a 21-year-old in their starting lineup. Debust doesn’t want to sit on the London Club bench, so joining Manchester United could be a more attractive opportunity for him.
