Manchester United’s Victor Lindelof is currently a hot topic in the transfer market, with interest coming from clubs in Saudi Arabia and Italy. The Saudi Pro League is on a mission to sign top European players and Lindelof is a prime target for them. Italian clubs are also eyeing the Swedish defender to strengthen their backline.
Lindelof is reportedly looking for a new challenge, and United are willing to let him go for a transfer fee ranging from £6m to £9m. If the transfer goes through, it is expected to set off a chain reaction of transfers at the club.
Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui are rumored to be on their way to Old Trafford once Lindelof moves on. De Ligt is eager to join United and negotiations between the two clubs are said to be progressing well.
The addition of De Ligt and Mazraoui will provide a boost to United’s defense and strengthen the team overall. Furthermore, a deal for Aaron Wan-Bissaka from West Ham United is said to be close to completion.
Following the defensive reinforcements, United will turn their attention to bolstering their midfield. Talks have begun for Burnley’s Sander Berge to make a move to Old Trafford. While United have allocated £23m for Berge, Burnley is holding out for closer to £30m. However, sources suggest that a compromise could be reached.
United have offered Berge an enticing contract worth £100,000 per week, signaling their eagerness to secure his services. This transfer could be a crucial step in United’s plan to revamp their midfield and potentially replace Casemiro in the defensive midfield position.
Overall, if the domino effect of transfers kicks off with Lindelof’s departure, Manchester United could see a significant overhaul in their squad, with new faces coming in to strengthen the team for the upcoming season.
