Contact made: Man United set to secure the signature of £70m defender who is wanted across Europe – first bid made already awaiting for final greenlight
As per reports in Spain, Man Utd have moved in to join the bidding to hire the services of Joshua Kimmich from Bayern Munich.
The Red Devils lured Mason Mount from Chelsea, and Sofyan Amrabat (on loan) from Fiorentina to reinforce the midfield in the summer.
Unfortunately, the English star has spent majority of the time on the treatment table and the Moroccan play breaker has only started 7 games in the Premier League and has not been consistent.
Things have been woeful since Brazil captain, Casemiro, suffered an injury and United desperately need to spend more to strengthen things in the center of the park.
In such a scenario, AS report that Man Utd have jumped into the race to sign Kimmich, who could end up leaving the Bavarians.
The Madrid based media outlet have mentioned that the likes of Liverpool and Barcelona are also looking to lure the 28-year-old, who is one of the best players in the deep lying midfield position.
The £326,000 a week German international has won eight Bundesliga titles at the Allianz, three German Cups, six Super Cups and a Champions League trophy.
Kimmich has the quality and the experience to improve the midfield at Old Trafford but the question is, why would the Kaiser want to join a Man Utd side struggling big time?
We were dumped out of the Champions League after finishing bottom of the group. On the other hand, in the Premier League, we are nine points behind Arsenal, who currently occupy the final CL qualification spot for the next campaign.
Do you think Man Utd should move in to sign Kimmich from Bayern?
