Coming from Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United have submitted an official bid of €50m for Portuguese world-class star. According to reports, It is understood United have made “their first move” for Silva by contacting the Portugal international’s entourage to explore the possibility of a summer move to Old Trafford. United make ‘first move’ to sign €100m-rated star who may have already played his last home game. This will be a superb signing for United. This guy and Martinez pairing will one of be best in Premier league next season🙀🙀🙀
Manchester United’s thrilling 3-2 win over Newcastle brought Erik ten Hag some respite and allowed him to give a motivational speech to the jubilant fans at Old Trafford ahead of the FA Cup final.
Young talents like Amad Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho were pivotal in keeping United’s European hopes alive. However, ongoing defensive problems underscored the urgent need for INEOS to secure a top-class centre-back, irrespective of the season’s end results.
The club’s leadership appears to recognize this need, as they are actively working to bolster a defense that has conceded 84 goals across all competitions this season, the highest total in over 45 years.
Manchester United Reach Out to Antonio Silva’s Agents
According to TEAMtalk, Manchester United have initiated contact with the agents of Benfica’s promising defender Antonio Silva. The 20-year-old, renowned for his passing skills and calmness under pressure, is on the radar of several top clubs.
Silva is expected to be the next major export from Liga Portugal, with indications that he may have already played his final home match for Benfica. United have made their initial approach to discuss a possible summer transfer to Old Trafford.
Benfica are unlikely to obstruct Silva’s move if he decides to join United, who are looking for an ideal replacement for Raphael Varane. However, given United’s current situation, Benfica may demand their full asking price, reportedly around €100m (£86m).
Considering the financial restrictions imposed by the Premier League’s PSR rules, signing Silva could be difficult for United. As an alternative, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his team might turn their attention to Fulham’s Tosin Adarabioyo, who will be available on a free transfer this summer.
