Development: Report claims Man Utd have now accepted bid to sell “monster” who played v Brighton

Posted by

A European team reportedly made a bid to Manchester United to sell the star player at Old Trafford, who was on the field against Brighton on Saturday, for £60,000 a week.

Man Utd wants to add more players after losing to Brighton.

In their first away Premier League match of the season, the Red Devils suffered a heartbreaking 2-1 loss to Brighton on Saturday afternoon. Even though Joao Pedro’s last-second goal was unacceptable, the performance overall was good at moments, but following the first win at home against Fulham, it was still a sobering reminder of reality.

This summer, new defensive recruits Leny Yoro and Matthijs de Ligt, as well as attacking star, have bolstered United’s roster. Despite Joshua Zirkzee’s debut goal, this team still needs more additions to increase their prospects of placing in the top four this year.

Joshua Zirkzee of Manchester United scores against Fulham Midfield appears to be the main area of attention for Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS right now, as Manuel Ugarte is supposedly getting close to joining Old Trafford from Paris Saint-Germain. The 23-year-old may have played his last game for the team because he was left out of the lineup for their Friday night match against Montpellier.

Andre, the enforcer for Fluminense, may be a viable substitute if Ugarte is unable to make it before Friday, the deadline, as he has been connected to a move to United. The Uruguayan and the Brazil international are of similar ages, and Liverpool has reportedly been interested in both players in the past.

Offer for Man Utd “monster” accepted.

Scott McTominay’s time at Old Trafford appears to be coming to an end as he appears to have accepted a €25 million (£21.1 million) bid from Napoli, according to Il Mattino [via Sport Witness].

The Serie A powerhouses are rumored to have offered the Scot a four-year contract, with bonuses included in the aforementioned sum.

Man, UTD, Scott, and McTominay

The decision by United to let McTominay go may cause division among fans, as some believe he is a disposable player and others view him as a squad member with a keen eye for goal in midfield.

The 27-year-old only had one appearance as a substitute in the team’s loss to Brighton. However, the fact that he did not make another start underscored his status as a member of the squad, and his playing time may be further reduced if Ugarte or Andre were to be added soon.

Because of this, it could be wise to let go of the £60,000-a-week McTominay, who will make a respectable sum of money in the process and be able to play regularly somewhere else.

If a deal doesn’t happen in the next few days, the Scotland international staying at United isn’t necessarily a bad thing (the media has hailed him as a “absolute monster”). However, it might be best for everyone if he leaves for a new challenge at a pivotal point in his career.
