As the weeks have gone by, it’s become clear that Manchester United have targeted Andre Onana as their goalkeeper to replace David De Gea.
Despite the Portuguese media’s attempts to push the idea that Diogo Costa could move to Old Trafford, their Italian counterparts are insistent that Erik ten Hag wants to Cameroon international above all.
Gazzetta dello Sport have the latest update on the situation on Monday, claiming that Manchester United should make their bid official this week.
The newspaper look at how Inter Milan can buy Romelu Lukaku, and the sale of their goalkeeper is key to this.
It’s reported that Manchester United’s talks with the Italians are entering the ‘final rush’, and these are ‘hot days’ in the transfer process.
In fact, ‘it is the week’ in which the Serie A side ‘expect the real offer’ from the Red Devils, which should be €50m excluding bonuses, meaning that fee will be up front.
Once those extras are sorted, that’s when the ‘deal will close’; a path both teams have ‘taken for a few days now’, with all signs pointing towards a happy ending.
Either way, ‘all parties involved are at work’, and progress is expected.
