Manchester United must strengthen their leaky backline to bounce back in the second half of the campaign and reports indicate that they are after Andreas Christensen.
The Danish international proved his worth in England with Chelsea and has been a solid center back in Spain since joining Barcelona.
According to Spanish source, Nacional, the Red Devils and Tottenham Hotspur have been in contact with the La Liga champions to lure the 27-year-old star.
The Catalan media outlet have mentioned that the Blaugrana could offload Christensen and the highest offer for his services has arrived from Man Utd.
It is stated that Man Utd have presented a bid worth £25.9million (30 million euros) to lure the former Borussia Monchengladbach defender.
At Old Trafford, Erik ten Hag hopes the £25.9million move would be enough to secure an experienced defender like Christensen.
The 69-capped international won the Champions League, Europa League, League Cup, UEFA Super Cup and the Club World Cup during his time at Stamford Bridge.
Moreover, last season, Christensen was a key member of the Barcelona squad that went on to win the La Liga and the Spanish Super Cup titles.
In the current campaign, so far, he has featured in 15 league games for the Nou Camp outfit and helped them keep 6 clean sheets.
Christensen has the quality and the experience to improve the defense at Old Trafford. Do you think an offer worth £25.9million would be enough for Man Utd to secure his signing?
