With just two weeks remaining in the January transfer window, Manchester United are expected to be among the most active clubs in England as reported by UnitedinFocus.
The club is set to complete multiple transfers, with both incoming and outgoing moves on the cards.
However, to comply with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability (PSR) regulations, United must prioritize player sales before any new signings.
Although Marcus Rashford’s future remains uncertain, the focus is currently on Alejandro Garnacho, who appears closer to leaving Old Trafford.
The young Argentine’s potential sale would represent a substantial profit for the club, which is crucial as Sir Jim Ratcliffe aims to address the club’s previous financial challenges.
Garnacho has attracted significant interest from both domestic and international clubs.
Chelsea has shown interest, but it is Serie A’s Napoli who are currently leading the race.
Recent reports suggest Garnacho has already agreed to personal terms with the Italian club.
The 20-year-old is reportedly willing to sign a five-year contract worth £3.4 million annually.
However, Napoli and Manchester United are still at odds over the transfer fee. Napoli’s initial offer of £42 million falls short of United’s asking price of £50 million.
Negotiations are ongoing, and it seems only a matter of time before an agreement is reached.
Should the transfer be finalized, it would highlight the changing fortunes of Manchester United, who may have to let go of one of their rising stars to a club with fewer league titles than them.
