There are many indications that Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solkskjær is prioritizing landing a big name for the midfield in this transfer window, as many midfielders at the club have questionable prospects at the club after the Europa League final defeat. Both Juan Mata and Nemanja Matic announce their departures from the club, and since both Paul Pogba and Donny van der Beek have uncertain futures at the club, a new star must be brought in.
This one already looks to have been found, with Atletico Madrid midfielder Saúl Ñíguez set to push to become a United player from next season. Atletico Madrid will reportedly demand around $50 Million for the 26-year-old Spanish national team player, who also has interest from both Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain.
However, there are many indications that the newly crowned La Liga champion will prioritize a switch to United, as he has previously stated that he is very flattered by the interest from the club and that the representatives recognize his work at Atletico.
Saul Níguez has spent most of his career at Atletico Madrid, making his debut as a 17-year-old and then playing a further 329 games for the capital club, one La Liga championship, two Europa League triumphs, one Copa del Rey trophy and a lost Champions League final
