After Cristiano Ronaldo's controversial words about Manchester United and their manager, Erik ten Hag, the English club have been looking for a replacement. Although it is not certain that he will be punished by the club, plans to replace the Portuguese have been speeded up.
The Mancunian directors reacted to the words of the five-time Ballon d'Or winner and are already considering market options. That is why the Red Devils have decided to break the bank for the Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe.
After rejecting a move to Real Madrid in the summer and renewing his contract with the Parc des Princes until 2025, it seems that the '7' is still not happy. He even asked for Neymar's exit and reports emerged that he is fed up within the dressing room and is looking for a way out in January.
The 'Mirror' reported this bombshell and assured that the English squad havr prepared a sum of 170 million euros to pay for his transfer. In addition, United is one of the few teams in the Premier League with the economic potential to pay him more than 500,000 euros a week.
The Manchester side are aware of the Bondy-born player's dissatisfaction and want to make a move for him as part of an exciting project for the future. There are many clubs who have the France international in their sights, including Madrid, but they will speed up their moves.
However, two teams that are unlikely to join the race are Manchester City and Liverpool, who both went in search of a striker last summer. Norwegian Erling Haaland and Uruguayan Darwin Nunez signed for the Cityzens and the Reds respectively.
