Man Utd’ Offered The Chance To Sign Two Real Madrid Stars In A Major Summer Clear-out For Mbappe
Man Utd have been offered Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin as Los Blancos continues to seek ways to offset FFP according to reports.
The Red Devils are set to make big changes over the summer after Sir Jim Ratcliffe completed a deal to buy 27.7 per cent of the Premier League club earlier this year.
Ratcliffe and INEOS have been given control of the football department as part of the agreement and they intend to make changes to the recruitment team and infrastructure around the club.
Omar Berrada, who will join in the summer as the club’s new CEO and technical director Jason Wilcox have already been brought in ahead of the summer.
Andriy Lunin signed for Real Madrid in the summer of 2018 for a reported fee of €8.5 million. He was loaned to numerous clubs in the initial stages.
However, his impressive glimpses made him a backup to first-choice goal-stopper Thibaut Courtois.
It was only Courtois’ injury that allowed the Ukrainian goalkeeper an extended run with the team. Luckily, he didn’t disappoint as well and has performed enormously well.
He has been instrumental in the Spanish side’s success this term so far.Lunin has featured in 28 games this season, keeping 12 clean sheets.
One can’t forget his heroics against Manchester City in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final round, which opened the doors for the semis.
Although Ten Hag has laughed off the reports in his pre-match press conference on Friday, he said: “It’s a joke. As long as I’ve worked, every summer, every window, 200 players getting interest from Manchester United.
“We did some research and also every summer we sell all of the players in our squad, which you make all of the headlines and that takes responsibility how you make such a headline. Find a good source if there is some truth in it…”
Manchester United offered Rodryo Goes
Rodrygo, 23, signed for Real Madrid in 2019 and has helped them to lift nine major trophies, including one Champions League and two LaLiga titles.
He is considered to be one of the best young wingers in the world and has made 42 appearances this season, scoring 15 goals and making eight assists in the process.
Manchester United are reportedly ‘tempted’ to submit a bid for Real Madrid star Rodrygo this summer, who is also a target for Liverpool.
The Brazil international could be one of the Real Madrid stars who’s sold to make room for Kylian Mbappe, who looks set to ditch Paris Saint-Germain for the Bernabeu.
The Ineos chief is reluctant to fork out huge fees on players but signing the Real Madrid star would be seen as a long-term investment and therefore more palatable.
Rodrygo has the quality to slot straight into the Red Devil’s starting XI and would provide competition for the likes of Antony and Marcus Rashford, who have not been so prolific this season.
