Manchester United line up €100 million move for Federico Valverde
Manchester United are ready to fork out €100 million to sign Federico Valverde as a key piece to revamp their midfield next summer.
According to Fichajes, Manchester United are considering making a €100 million bid for Federico Valverde next summer. The Red Devils are set to embark on a challenging task to convince Real Madrid to part ways with their star midfielder, and the Uruguayan international is seen as an ideal addition that would improve their ranks.
Manchester United are set to focus on revamping their midfield ranks in future windows, with the ideal time considered to be next summer. The Red Devils are planning on a lot of changes, some even enforced, as there are big question marks over some of their existing players.
For instance, Casemiro, despite rejecting a move to Saudi Arabia as per reports, continues to have interest from Al-Nassr ahead of future windows. Similarly, Bruno Fernandes, who also rejected a high-profile move to Al-Hilal, could be the subject of further interest, although the Manchester United skipper is likely to stay until next summer.
Meanwhile, Kobbie Mainoo’s future has been called into considerable doubt following his struggle to get regular game time under Ruben Amorim. There is also Manuel Ugarte, with the Uruguayan midfielder’s performances have been below par since his arrival in the summer of 2024.
Manchester United were keen to bring in some key midfield targets this summer, as they were unsuccessful with Carlos Baleba. They are not expected to make a move in January for the Brighton & Hove Albion star, but there are other names, with Amorim keen on the idea of Ruben Neves. The Portuguese midfielder could be an achievable target. However, there is another in Federico Valverde, who could be an improbable target.
Manchester United are preparing Federico Valverde bid
Manchester United are reportedly preparing a €100 million bid for the 27-year-old versatile midfielder, who is a star at Real Madrid. The Red Devils could certainly show ambition with a signing of that sort, but signing Valverde would be extremely challenging owing to many factors.
For starters, Real Madrid consider Federico Valverde an undisputed starter, and as things stand, have no plans to sell him to anyone. Irrespective of the fact that Manchester United will offer him a lucrative deal, without Champions League football, they will have no chance whatsoever in attracting talents like the 27-year-old versatile midfielder, meaning this chase will end as soon as it begins.
