Man United ‘Ready to Offer’ £84m for PSG playmaker amid strong RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich links
Manchester United are ready to offer £84m for Xavi Simons this summer.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has ‘given the go-ahead’ for the deal to happen.
According to SPORT, Manchester United is prepared to intensify its pursuit of Xavi Simons and is considering making an offer of £84 million (€100 million) to Paris Saint-Germain for the Dutchman.
According to the Spanish source, the Red Devils want to beat RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich, two of Germany’s top teams, in the summer transfer window by making the Ligue 1 powerhouses an attractive offer.
According to reports, PSG is prepared to extend Simons’ loan to RB Leipzig, where he shone last season and attracted interest from elite teams across the continent.
Bayern’s offer of £84 million for the Dutchman would be dwarfed by United’s; SPORT reports that the Bavarians are only prepared to spend £50–60 million for Simons.
After confirming the signings of defender Leny Yoro and striker Joshua Zirkzee, United are now expected to bring in a new player in the middle of the park.
The Red Devils have recently held talks over signing PSG’s Manuel Ugarte, who looks to depart Parc des Princes just 12 months after his arrival from Sporting Lisbon.
According to SPORT (via The Faithful MUFC), Manchester United could soon repeat the success of Leny Yoro’s pursuit and fend off interest from top European clubs by presenting a lucrative offer for Xavi Simons.
United’s minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has reportedly ‘given the go-ahead’ for the deal to happen as the Red Devils look to bring in another highly promising player this summer.
The Spanish outlet claims manager Erik ten Hag ‘wants’ Simons’ arrival at Old Trafford, while his assistant Ruud van Nistelrooy is ‘working to entice him’ to join the Man United project.
According to SPORT, PSG are now patiently waiting for the Red Devils’ offer to arrive as they look to bring another Dutchman on board ahead of Ten Hag’s third season in charge
