Monday Morning deal: Man United very close to agreeing £25.6million fee for signing before community shield final game,final approach made already awaiting approval
Manchester United will face Manchester City in the Community Shield contest next weekend and the team is in no shape to beat the PL champions.
The Red Devils have thus far completed two signings this summer. Leny Yoro was signed from Lille and he immediately suffered a long term injury.
On the other hand, Joshua Zirkzee arrived from Bologna to reinforce the strike-force but the Dutch forward, has not featured for a single minute in the pre-season.
With Rasmus Hojlund out injured as well, Jadon Sancho was utilized in the False No.9 role in the last pre-season friendly against Liverpool.
Not sure how Manchester United will be able to beat the Sky Blues in the Community Shield with such a depleted squad.
Erik ten Hag must step back into the transfer market and reinforce the team before the opening Premier League game against Fulham.
According to TDF, Man Utd are very close to agreeing a fee worth £25.6million (30 million euros), to secure the signing of Noussair Mazraoui.
The Moroccan international won three Eredivisie titles at Ajax under Erik ten Hag, who knows all about the player’s qualities.
The 26-year-old fullback came on as a substitute for Bayern in the latest friendly fixture against Tottenham Hotspur, that the Bavarians won 2-1.
So, Mazraoui is fit and ready to immediately strengthen the Man Utd backline before the start of the new campaign.
As per the report, the African star only wants to move to United and Bayern are willing to sell him to the Old Trafford outfit.
Let’s hope Mazraoui can arrive in Manchester to complete the deal in the next few days.
