As Manchester United continue to be linked with Sofyan Amrabat, there is a feeling that one of their current midfielders need to go before a bid is made.

As things stand, the likeliest candidate for this is Fred, who has been told he likely won’t be a regular starter this season and is an ideal option to raise some funds.

Milliyet in Turkey have an update on Galatasaray’s pursuit of the Manchester United player, as the Turkish side have been the ones wanting him the most to date.

The outlet explain that the Süper Lig club have ‘had a big problem’ when it comes to buying the Brazilian, but that hasn’t put them off.

It’s said that while Manchester United are asking for an ‘astronomical fee’ by Galatasaray’s standards for the player, ‘a new meeting’ will take place this week to try and get something over the line.

While there may be other teams interested in the former Shakhtar Donetsk star, it’s added that the Turkish giants appear to be the ‘most serious candidate’ to acquire his services this summer at this moment in time.
