Liverpool They are reported to be in a battle with Manchester United on a deal to sign Juventus star Gleison Bremer this summer, according to Italian outlet All of Juve.
The Brazilian has established himself as the mainstay of the Bianconeri's defence after moving to the Allianz Stadium from Torino in 2022. He helped the Italian giants finish in the top three and qualify for the Champions League Last season, he also led them to win the Coppa Italia title.
The 27-year-old is regarded as one of the best centre-backs in Serie A, so it's no surprise to see Liverpool and Man Utd lining up to sign him to bolster their backline.
According to the report of All of JuveThe Reds are showing strong interest in signing Bremer and could make a concrete approach in the coming days.
The report further claims that Thiago Motta's side have no intention of letting their star player leave, but could change their stance if they receive an offer of around £59m.
Battle
However, the Italian outlet claims that Man Utd are also interested in acquiring the South American, therefore, the Merseyside club will have to beat their arch-rivals in this race to sign their key target.
Although Liverpool have been quiet this window, reports have continued to emerge that Arne Slot's side want a new centre-back this summer to replace Joel Matip, who left the club as a free agent.
On the other hand, Manchester United have also been looking for a new defender. They have already signed Leny Yoro, but he has suffered an injury that will probably keep him out of action for a long period. Therefore, it seems that they are now planning to sign a new centre-back.
Bremer is a strong defender and can play out from the back. He has already shown his qualities in the Italian top flight, so he could be a smart signing for Manchester United or Liverpool if either club signs him.
However, it will be interesting to see if the record Premier league The champions or the Merseyside club finally opt to formalise their interest in securing his signature in this transfer window.
