manchester united are “determined” to sign real Madrid star Vinicius Junior this summer, according to the Spanish media Transfers.
After moving to the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium from Flamengo in 2018, the Brazilian has established himself as one of the best players in the world in recent years, helping his team win a pair of league titles, a Champions League Trophy and some cup competitions.
Therefore, it is not a surprise that the Red Devils have shown interest in signing a player with South American qualities to strengthen their offensive department.
With Kylian Mbappé heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid ahead of the summer window, speculation has begun to grow over the future of several Real Madrid attackers, who play in the same position as the Frenchman.
Now, according to the report TransfersMan Utd's new minority shareholder Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who will also run the football side of Old Trafford, is preparing to spend money this summer on strengthening the team in order to challenge for the big prizes next season.
Vinicius Jr to Manchester United
The report further claims that the Red Devils are interested in strengthening their front line and have identified Vinicius Jr as a “dream” target. Transfers He also states that United are 'determined' to buy the South American and have already begun to 'press' hard to attract him to Old Trafford.
The Spanish outlet also says that United are willing to spend big money to acquire Vinicius Jr's service and are willing to spend a fee of around £170 million.
Paris Saint-Germain were also reported to be interested in signing the Real Madrid star, but Ben Jacobs recently reported (via Transfers) that Les Parisiens are not looking to sign him, so United have a clear path to buying him.
Vinicius Jr would be a huge coup for Man Utd if they bought him. However, he is one of the talismanic figures of the white team so it is unlikely that they will let their star go and there are no indications that the forward wants to move away from the Spanish capital.
Therefore, it is going to be extremely difficult for Man Utd to sign Vinicius Jr if they make a concrete approach in the next few years. transfer window.
