Man Utd ‘Really Like’ £40m Brazilian Midfielder
Manchester United are targeting a Premier League-proven midfielder this summer based on their recruitment approach, journalist Ben Jacobs has told GIVEMESPORT.
In recent weeks, the Red Devils have been linked with both West Ham United’s Edson Alvarez and Wolves’ Joao Gomes, who shocked Micah Richards after he saw him perform last season, following their impressive seasons in England.
According to Jacobs, United also ‘appreciate’ the 19-year-old Benfica starlet Joao Neves, but his hefty release clause remains an issue.
The Manchester side are operating on a tight starting budget this summer, reportedly as low as £50m. Before major outgoings commence, pursuing a big-money deal is unlikely with Gomes reportedly set to cost around £40m according to a previous report from The Mirror.
United are keen to offload multiple out-of-favour stars this summer, including Jadon Sancho, Mason Greenwood, and Donny van de Beek.
First-team player Casemiro is also expected to leave as clubs in the Saudi Pro League are reportedly keen on signing the 32-year-old this summer.
GMS have previously reported that United are targeting signings in five positions, including centre-back and centre-forward.
Man United Eye Premier League Stars
Jacobs, speaking to GMS, suggests United are eyeing multiple Premier League stars in search of a new midfielder this summer:
“We also know that Joao Neves, the young, 19-year-old midfielder, is appreciated by Manchester United and also Arsenal, but Benfica expect a 120 million euros release clause to be paid. So that one is a bit more problematic.
“There’s Joao Gomes at Wolves, another name that Manchester United really like. And there’s Edson Alvarez at West Ham.
“So what we’re sort of seeing predominantly is a recruitment approach in a lot of positions at Manchester United towards proven Premier League quality.”
