Man United haven’t given up hope of signing Tosin Adarabioyo on a free switch this summer time.
Manchester United should make signing a defender a primary precedence this summer time. Raphael Varane has left. Jonny Evans could effectively comply with, whereas Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire each have unsure futures.
The Pink Devils have been monitoring a number of names within the centre-back place, although there was no standout candidate up to now. Tosin Adarabioyo felt like an excellent choice because of the truth he got here with no switch price.
Nevertheless, all experiences advised a transfer to Chelsea was all-but-done. That mentioned, United are usually not giving up the chase, in keeping with Give Me Sport.
Dharmesh Sheth was talking to GMS and he claimed that United are nonetheless ‘taking a look at’ a transfer to signal the 26-year-old defender regardless of these aforementioned rumours. It does really feel like a protracted shot given the truth that Adarabioyo is alleged to have already agreed to phrases at Stamford Bridge – and on a hefty wedge of cash, too.
Sheth went on to say that United are monitoring many different defenders, within the occasion {that a} transfer for Adarabioyo is certainly utterly useless within the water.
I can solely assume United had been too gradual to the punch right here, as a result of this might have been an astute piece of enterprise for a participant who had a formidable marketing campaign. Both that or like we touched upon earlier, the Outdated Trafford aspect simply weren’t able to pay the Manchester-born-defender the £150k-a-week that he’s fetching residence at Chelsea.
When it comes to different choices, Jarrad Branthwaite continues to be trying like one other prime candidate, although once more, he won’t come cheaply within the slightest.
