Manchester United is now one step closer to a swooping drop in exciting potential transfers for RB Leipzig to attack midfielder Zabi Simons.
The Dutch International is widely expected to leave Leipzig this summer, and has long linked with the larger clubs in the Premier League and elsewhere in Europe.
Two of the main names thought to be chasing Simons were both Man Utd and Liverpool, but now it appears that there was a major development in Saga.
Recently, Liverpool has been claimed this summer that Simons has been set to be his top priority transfer target, with a bid of 80 million euros reported to be in work.
But that was the 21-year-old lined up as an alternative to Mohamed Sarah, which was no longer necessary.
Mohamed Salah stays in Liverpool and Man United clears it to sign Zabi Simons.
Breaking today’s report, Sarah says she is locked up in a new contract with Liverpool. So Simmons’ move may no longer be a meaningful priority for the Reds.
He definitely didn’t need that much if Simons could play other roles, but United need a quality addition to such an offense.
This could be a huge boost for United fans in the coming days as they prepare to prepare to find the best way to buy Manchester United vs Lyon tickets.
Christian Faulk said recently Catch off side That MUFC is a concrete option for Simons, so if the LFC stops competing for his signature, it certainly will serve their cause.
Liverpool fans don’t get too bothered as keeping Sarah has always been a priority.
It is essential that the Merseyside giants keep Sarah as they are likely to already lose Trent Alexander Arnold on a free transfer to Real Madrid this summer.
Egypt International is approaching something that cannot be played this season, and could potentially sacrificing a large sum of money to find an alternative.
In reality, Simons probably wasn’t enough for the job, but he’s likely to still cost 800,000 euros.
