Last weekend, we covered claims from Italy which stated Manchester United will table an offer of around €30-35m plus bonuses for Patrick Dorgu.
It was also said Manchester United’s interest in the 20-year-old is a concern for Napoli, who are also keen on signing the US Lecce star.
Dorgu can operate across the left side and also as a right winger and Sport Mediaset now provides the latest on Manchester United.
On Sunday, the Serie A side drew 1-1 against Juventus and the English club’s ’emissaries’ were in the attendance at Lecce’s stadium to follow Dorgu live in action.
It’s claimed the Denmark international is a ‘concrete objective’ for Manchester United and their scouts also followed Juve’s Kenan Yıldız at the weekend.
On Tuesday, Gazzetta dello Sport reported Napoli want to get ahead of competitors by completing the deal for the versatile player in January and send him back on loan to Lecce until the end of this season.
Sky Italia journalist Luca Marchetti now tells Marte Sport Live, relayed by Area Napoli, the Naples club won’t sign Dorgu in January.
“Dorgu? I don’t think that Napoli have the priority and the economic strength to buy the player as early as January. It’s an operation that I see as plausible in June,” he said.
