It appears that Manchester United are focusing on their defence ahead of the next season, and alongside Matthijs De Ligt, they are going after Gleison Bremer.
That’s what Calciomercato are reporting on Monday, with it stated that the Red Devils have already taken ‘concrete steps’ in trying to understand whether or not a move to Old Trafford is something the player would be interested in and if Juventus would sell.
Manchester United, who could lose Raphaël Varane, at a minimum, in the summer, will need to strengthen their backline, and the Brazilian appears to be one of their top targets.
Juventus, down their end, would be open to selling him, knowing that the centre-back’s ‘ambitions’ could see him seek a move to another league, such as the Premier League.
However, they would only do so as long as they saw €70m on the table, as that is the minimum they will consider to ‘start to talk’.
That means Manchester United will have to open their wallet wide if they want the player next season, following a series of very shaky defensive displays from Erik ten Hag’s side this campaign amid injuries to the likes of Lautaro Martínez and Luke Shaw, who were both in the starting line-up to face Newport County in the FA Cup on Sunday evening.
