Saul Niguez is ready to join Old Trafford if MU reaches a purchase agreement with Atletico. |
Mourinho has his eye on Saul Niguez and wants him in the Red Devils squad. With Paul Pogba sidelined with an injury, the Portuguese coach has realised the difficult problem in MU's midfield is the lack of attacking ability. This is one of the reasons why Lukaku is "hungry" for the ball, failing to score in the last 7 consecutive matches.
However, the price to get this rising 22-year-old star is not cheap, even very expensive, when last summer Atletico Madrid included in the contract extension a clause of up to 134 million pounds. Chelsea is also said to be interested in signing Niguez.
So, unless MU can agree on a price, or must pay the full 134 million pounds. There is information that the Old Trafford team can consider the option of exchanging players, plus cash.
Ateltco is said to be interested in bringing Ander Herrera back to Spain, as the midfielder's contract with MU will expire in the summer of 2018.
Griezmann changed his mind about "leaving" Mourinho, returning to France to play for PSG

Griezmann claims he has no contact with Mourinho and admits playing with Neymar and Mbappe is a dream |
MU is the name mentioned most when people talk about Griezmann's future. Indeed, if Atletico Madrid had not been under a transfer ban, the French striker would have been the owner of the number 7 shirt at Old Trafford.
Mourinho is said to still be interested in the 26-year-old striker and is in contact to sign him in the near future. However, speaking to French television recently, Griemann insisted that this was not the case. He has not spoken to the Portuguese coach on the phone.
Instead, Griezmann revealed his future elsewhere, not Barca, nor MU or Real Madrid, but his hometown team, PSG.
The reason this striker is said to be aiming to return to Ligue 1 is because he wants to play alongside Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.
In this year's tournament, Griezmann has played unimpressively, so far only scoring 2 goals in La Liga for Atletico after 11 matches.
Messi wants Barca to "take over" Dele Alli
Dele Alli has been eyed by Real Madrid for a long time. Especially after scoring a brace against this team, when the two teams met in the second leg of the Champions League group stage, Tottenham won 3-1, President Perez liked this midfielder even more and saw that Alli was a perfect fit for the Vultures.

Messi wants Barca to beat Real to the deal named Dele Alli. |
However, according to Don Balon, Messi wants Barca to beat Real Madrid in this deal, because Dele Alli is too good to replace Ivan Rakitic, who is showing signs of decline, making his future at Nou Camp uncertain. Meanwhile, mainstay Xavi is also 33 years old.
Also from the same source, Barca considers Coutinho as the top transfer target but Messi prefers Alli.
This season, after Neymar decided to "defect" to PSG, Barca did not have the desired addition, plus the impact of injuries, but currently Messi and Barca are still flying high, leaving Real 8 points behind in La Liga. Number 10 himself scored 12 goals after 11 matches.
