Manchester United Reportedly 'Seriously Considering' €120M Jan Oblak Move

Manchester United are reportedly giving serious consideration to activating Jan Oblak's €120 million (£103.5 million) buyout clause this summer.

According to ESPN FC's Dermot Corrigan, sources have indicated as much amid David De Gea's drop in form, despite Oblak penning a new contract earlier in April.

The deal extended his stay with Atletico Madrid until 2023 and increased his clause from €100 million (£86.3 million).

De Gea has long been United's best player, as reflected in the fact he's been named the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year in four of his seven full seasons at the club.
