Manchester United have reportedly increased their communication with Juventus defender Gleison Bremer as they prepare to make a move for him in the summer. The 27-year-old has played a key role in Juventus’ defense this season, helping them concede only 23 goals. There are rumors indicating that Juventus may need to offload some players due to the club’s financial issues. In response, Calciomercato has stated that Ratcliffe has advised his team to start looking for the Brazilian center-back in order to get ahead of their competitors during the upcoming transfer window. Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle, and Tottenham Hotspur are all interested in the 27-year-old player, with Manchester United rumored to be willing to pay a release clause of £43m to £49m. Additionally, United may consider selling their second leading goalscorer in the upcoming summer transfer window. Brazilian striker receives two-year ban while being linked with Manchester United. United will probably need to sign a new central defender in the summer as Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans will both be out of contract at the end of the season. Another source, TuttoSport, believes Manchester United is likely to pursue Boca Juniors’ talented 18-year-old center-back, Aaron Anselmino. The Argentine youngster has been highly praised as a promising prospect, with INEOS showing interest in tapping into the South American talent pool to discover potential future stars. It is surprising to hear that United is open to spending £15m on the defender and then loaning him to Nice for further development. This would be a change from the belief that Ratcliffe is against making Nice a partner club of United. It has been emphasized before that the British billionaire desires the clubs to operate independently. Experience MUFC Pro for free today.
