Man Utd, Real Madrid Get Their Answer! š The football world is buzzing as the sensational Ashworth signing has made his decision. Amid intense speculation, the Ā£50m wonderkid has finally chosen his next destination, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. Both Manchester United and Real Madrid have been vying for his talents, dreaming of what he could bring to their squads. The anticipation has been electric, and now the moment we’ve all been waiting for has arrived. Who has won the Ashworth sweepstakes? Stay tuned for all the thrilling details!
Manchester United are awaiting a response from Leny Yoro by week’s end regarding their improved offer, which aims to outmaneuver Real Madrid. French reports indicate that Dan Ashworth, the new sporting director at United, might face his first setback.
Under the leadership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and supported by a new management team including Ashworth, CEO Omar Berrada, and technical director Jason Wilcox, Manchester United hopes to reclaim its glory in English and European football. Ratcliffe, the second wealthiest man in Britain, has already made tough decisions, such as not renewing Raphael Varane’s Ā£340,000-a-week contract and letting Anthony Martial go at the end of his Ā£250,000-a-week deal.
Despite these high-profile departures, United is focusing on new signings. Offers will be considered for Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof, Scott McTominay, Casemiro, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. The club plans to secure at least four, possibly up to seven, significant additions this summer.
Manchester United’s pursuit of Leny Yoro has intensified, with a new offer reportedly increased to ā¬60m, overshadowing Real Madridās interest. The club is also targeting Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna, aiming to build a robust attacking partnership. Their defensive recruitment is progressing, with ongoing talks to sign Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern Munich for a fee between ā¬50m and ā¬60m.
United has already had a ā¬50m bid for Yoro accepted by Lille. Despite his preference for Real Madrid, the increased offer aims to compel Lille to sell to United. However, reports from LāEquipe suggest Yoro remains intent on joining Real Madrid, potentially leaving Lille in a difficult position as Real can negotiate a free transfer from January 1 if no deal is reached this summer.
This news is a setback for Ashworth, who must now rethink the clubās defensive strategy. While still interested in Evertonās Jarrad Branthwaite, United is far from meeting Evertonās Ā£70m valuation, with their latest Ā£50m offer rejected.
