Man United have submitted a bid to sign “world-class” £75m titan imagine him & Martinez
Manchester United could be close to pulling off a significant summer signing by entering the race for RB Leipzig defender Josko Gvardiol, whose move to Manchester City had appeared to be nearing completion.
Contrary to previous reports, new claims from Spain suggest that three other Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, are now competing for the Croatian’s signature. This competition may drive up the potential transfer fee from the initially stated £75 million.
Gvardiol, a 21-year-old center-back, has become highly sought-after due to his exceptional qualities on the field, despite his young age. Standing at 6 feet 1 inch, he possesses remarkable speed, technical skills, and international experience with Croatia.
Should he choose to join Manchester United, Gvardiol could form a formidable defensive partnership with Lisandro Martinez, a pairing that would be difficult for any striker to overcome.
Gvardiol’s performances in the Bundesliga have caught the attention of top clubs. He exhibits a powerful presence on the field, as well as excellent passing accuracy, dribbling success, and clearance statistics.
His attributes make him a top-tier defender, and he has received praise from esteemed figures in the football world, including Croatia’s national team manager, Zlatko Dalic, who referred to him as the “best central defender in the world.”
For Manchester United, acquiring Gvardiol would not only secure a long-term successor to Raphael Varane but also add depth and potential to elevate the club’s status in world football.
