Manchester United after 25-year-old Barcelona superstar. According to reports, Manchester United is preparing an unexpected €70 million bid for Barcelona defender Andreas Christensen.
The Red Devils are interested in signing Christensen, who just transferred from Chelsea to Camp Nou last summer, claims Fichajes. In an effort to expand his options defensively, Erik ten Hag has narrowed his search to the Danish defender.
Barcelona must cut €200 million from their pay bill in order to comply with Financial Fair Play rules. Lionel Messi’s return from PSG is another goal for the Blaugrana, and Christensen’s departure has been justified as a sacrifice.
This season, Christensen has been in excellent form, contributing to Barcelona’s 14 clean sheets in 27 games across all competitions. In addition, he has assisted on two goals and formed a strong alliance with Ronald Araujo.
Manchester United’s €70 million bid for a player they signed as a free agent last summer, nevertheless, might tempt the Blaugrana. Following the end of his Chelsea contract, he joined.
With Ten Hag’s team, Christensen might be about to make an unexpected comeback to the Premier League. Harry Maguire’s loss may result from his arrival given the uncertainty surrounding the captain of the Red Devils. He is one of 15 players who United may sell this summer, according to reports.
Ansu Fati will continue to be a member of the Blaugrana:
Ansu Fati, a young player for Barcelona, won’t be leaving the team this summer despite Manchester United’s interest. The Spanish player will continue to play for the Catalan powerhouse, according to the player’s father Bori. Ansu will remain in Barcelona, he declared (via Toni Juanmarti). That much is true. He stays, that much is certain.
The Red Devils were reportedly prepared to make an offer of up to €100 million for Fati, according to reports from last month. This season, the winger has dropped down the lineup, starting only 12 of 46 games in all competitions. He has three assists in addition to his seven goals.
The player’s father and Xavi have been at odds over how little playing time his kid has received. However, it appears that Fati will stay with Barcelona, and everyone will be hoping that he returns to form.
Ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, is looking to add an attacker, ideally a striker. Marcus Rashford, who has scored 29 goals in 51 games, is under pressure to contribute more goals for the Red Devils. Since Fati is only 20 and still has years ahead of him, he was seen as a long-term signing.
