Press reports revealed today that there is a desire on the part of Manchester United to sign a contract with a player from the first team of Barcelona during the upcoming summer transfer period.
Al-Manu hopes to greatly strengthen its ranks during the summer transfers, in order for the club’s first football team to return to winning championships in light of the team’s absence from it for many times during the past years.
The new administration sets more than one goal in front of it in order to strengthen the team’s ranks by bringing in names worthy of the name of Manchester United, the most decorated team in the history of the English Premier League.
According to information received from the Spanish newspaper “Sport”, Manchester United is ready to make an out-of-market offer to sign Ronald Araujo, defender of the first team of Barcelona, during the upcoming summer transfer period.
The newspaper added: United are willing to pay 100 million euros in order to obtain the player’s services and indicated that Laporta believes that the amount will solve a large part of Barcelona’s problems and help the team finance other contracts.
She concluded: Xavi Hernandez, the coach of the Catalan club’s first football team, and Deco, the sporting director, want the player to continue, but we should not forget that Barca must sell a major player during the next summer transfer period.
