Reports are gathering pace that an approach for Atletico Madrid’s young midfielder Saul Niguez has been made by Manchester United.
According to Darren Lewis of the Daily Mirror, the Red Devils have “opened talks” with the 21-year-old, who is said to have a release clause of £18 million in his contract; it’s also noted Arsenal hold a longstanding interest in the midfielder.
As reported by Sport Witness, Spanish radio station Cadena Cope has claimed the Red Devils sent a “delegation” to Madrid in an attempt to push through a deal, with a sum of €20 million (£15 million) mooted.
