With less than a week left in the transfer market, there are more questions than answers at Manchester United. Antony luckily got on loan to Real Betis, where the La Liga club covers around 84 percent of his salary. That was one answer. Exit of Casemiro and Marcus Rashford, plus the signing of Patrick Dorgu, there is still no answer. Italian media claim the process with the latter is in the phase that ends with a transfer.
The 20-year-old, who Manchester United have flashed as the right man for left-back and Ruben Amorim’s formation, has been heavily linked with United over the past month. Two bids are said to have been fired, both rejected. Serie A club Lecce are in no hurry to sell the Danish international and have set a price tag of a solid 40 million euros.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Manchester United have now put a €38 million bid on the table.
This means that the parties are so stumbling close to an agreement that it is expected that the Dorgu transfer will be carried out before the closing of the transfer window.
According to transfer journalist Romano, the United management believes it will all be in place within 48 hours.
