Manchester United offers €50 million for a 27-year-old player
Manchester United submits an offer to acquire Andre Onana.
Manchester United has presented Inter Milan with an offer for Andre Onana, but their €45 million plus bonuses offer falls short of the club’s asking price.
According to Alfredo Pedulla, Manchester United has submitted their initial offer for Andre Onana, advancing their pursuit of the goalkeeper. The Red Devils have proposed a contract worth €45 million in addition to €5-6 million in incentives. However, Inter Milan desires €50 million plus simple add-ons.
The goalkeeping situation at Manchester United continues to confound their fans in light of recent events. The Red Devils searched for a new goalkeeper on the transfer market. Erik ten Hag, however, hoped to extend David de Gea’s contract.
While rumors suggested that the Spaniard would leave the club on a free transfer, the reality was entirely different. According to reports, de Gea had signed the new contract, but Manchester United backed out of the deal at the last minute.
Manchester United are already preparing for life without their ever-present Spaniard, despite claims by some that the situation could still be resolved. Andre Onana, Erik ten Hag’s former protégé at Ajax, has already been designated as a worthy successor.
Inter Milan’s 27-year-old target has been linked briefly to Chelsea, but it now appears that Manchester United will sign him. The funds generated from a sale would help the Serie A powers balance their unbalanced books.
Inter Milan reportedly requires €60 million in order to approve the transaction. However, Manchester United indicated they could approach €50 million. This time, the Red Devils are not precisely flush with cash, so Ten Hag must carefully select his preferred targets.
Manchester United considered making a proposal in the past few days, but they have now presented Inter Milan with their first offer. The Red Devils have offered €45 million plus incentives of €5-6 million. Inter Milan is likely to either deny or counter the offer.
Alfredo Pedulla suggested Inter Milan desired €50 million in guaranteed transfer fees in addition to simple add-ons. It is believed that the Serie A powers will not settle for less than their initial asking price of €60 million.
Ten Hag desires the 27-year-old player, and Manchester United is willing to engage in in-depth discussions regarding this transfer. For the time being, the two parties may continue to negotiate; however, the Red Devils will need to increase their offer, as they are close to reaching a deal.
