Manchester United are interested in signing a midfielder who was once one of the Premier League’s best in England, but insiders say the deal is fraught with obstacles.
With tonight’s 11 p.m. deadline approaching, Manchester United are up against the clock if they want to make any late acquisitions
.
Moves for Leon Bailey, Christopher Nkunku, and Mathys Tel currently appear unlikely, but this will further reinforce United’s desire to keep Alejandro Garnacho if Napoli and/or Chelsea make a last-minute offer.
Tel’s story is possibly the most interesting of the window thus far, with the striker abandoning plans to join Tottenham.
Spurs had agreed to a €60 million/£50 million agreement with Bayern Munich, but it fell through after Tel rejected Spurs .
Tottenham has accepted a loan offer from Bayern and convinced Tel to sign up, despite Man Utd’s recent rejection of their own loan bid. Tel was rumored to prefer joining Man Utd if he left Bayern, indicating Man Utd were simply in the right place at the wrong time.
