With the reports of Real Madrid’s Raphael Varane consistently being linked to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, it’s more than conceivable that the previous SC Freiburg star could be a strong alternative if United fails to land Varane.
At 25-years of age, also having an abundance of Premier League experience, interest in the defender is logical with Thomas Tuchel desiring to get a young center-back for their backline and United also expecting to improve their own defense.
Currently priced at £40.5m, we don’t think that it is difficult for both the teams to get him. Both the clubs are economically strong and may easily seal the deal as they have the much-needed funds for the transfer.
Leicester will certainly increase their price for their star defender next term or may let the player sign a new contract. Manchester United has previously signed Harry Maguire from Leicester and he easily cost us around £80m, which is a huge fee.
Varane seems to be the number one target for Manchester United and they will go all out to sign him this season. United will try to open talks once they seal the Jadon Sancho transfer.
With an aim to give a strong title challenge to fierce rivals Manchester City, the Red Devils will target another midfielder and a winger.
