Two days ago we covered a claim from Mundo Deportivo that Manchester United had called Barcelona and asked for time to formalise a proposal for Yerry Mina.
The Colombian defender has been considered surplus to requirements at Barca since not long after he joined the club, and even his good World Cup hasn’t managed to change that.
On Monday, Sport, another Catalan newspaper, report Manchester United have now also asked Mina and those who represent him for a little time.
Mina is said to be the back-up option should getting the England defender prove too difficult this summer. Sport push the potential price for Mina up to €40m, which would have been beyond Barca’s wildest dreams a few months ago and is perhaps still unrealistic.
The Catalan newspaper claims that should Jose Mourinho manage to get Maguire, then Leicester City themselves will move for Mina.
