Manchester United are interested in the moves of athletic club Bilbao midfielder Mikel Jauregizer.
The 21-year-old has done very well for his outfit, and his performance has attracted the attention of Manchester United. According to a report by Fichajes, they could see them make a move for him if they didn’t sign Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba.
Baleba is an important target for Red Devils, but this move is not easy. Brighton will request a club record fee from Manchester United. Meanwhile, Jauregizar is also Liverpool’s target.
Jauregizar is a future asset
Jauregizar is a cheaper alternative. He’s done well in the LA La Liga and has the physicality and skill to get along well in the Premier League as well. He is a hardworking player, helping defensively and adding work rates to Manchester United’s midfield.
The 21-year-old is highly regarded in Spain, and he has a big future. The opportunity to move to Manchester United is extremely exciting for him. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United will follow up on their interests with official offers to sign players.
Man United will need to add a midfield
They’ve done well this summer to improve their attacking units, but they also need more quality on the field. They had a hard time dominating the midfield contest. In addition to Jauregizar, they also keep an eye on Lucien Agoume and Javi Guerra.
It is clear that Manchester United are determined to improve their midfield units before the summer transfer period closes. All three players have done very well for each team in La Liga and have the quality to succeed in the Premier League. It is still unknown who will eventually sign Manchester United.
