Real Madrid Forward Brutally Rejects Man United’ Advances Ahead Of A Summer Move

According to reliable reports in Spain, Madrid forward Joselu, who is on loan at Real Madrid from Espanyol, has rejected the opportunity to join Man United in the summer.

The 34-year-old striker, who has scored 14 goals, reportedly wishes to stay at Madrid after a surprisingly good campaign.

With Anthony Martial set to leave Man Utd this summer, the club are keen on signing a couple of forwards to bolster their attacking options.

A number of targets are currently under consideration and it recently transpired that Real Madrid loanee Joselu is on their list of targets.

The Spanish giants do have the option to purchase the 34-year-old at the end of the season for just €1.5m and given his impressive form, this seems a real possibility.

Joselu himself has made it no secret that his desire is to sign for Real Madrid on a permanent basis. In an interview with ABC, he explained: “I hope to stay with Real Madrid on a permanent deal.

“I had a clause that if Espanyol went down, I could go out on loan. And well, Madrid had the opportunity, they thought it was convenient to be able to trigger it. And here I am.

“Well, there’s a contract, an option to buy, Madrid can buy me in the summer. There are many situations, if Espanyol do not get promoted, if they do go up. A lot of things that can happen.”

Manchester United could shift their attention to other targets with Benjamin Sesko emerging has a concrete target.
