Transfer Rumour: Man United ‘Ready To Offer Saul Niguez £150,000-A-Week Deal’

The 25-year-old is widely-regarded as one of the top midfielders in Europe having come through the Atleti ranks to become a key member of Diego Simeone’s side.

Saul has been linked with a move to the Premier League for several years and is valued at around £70million.

And according to the Daily Star, Manchester United are set to reignite their interest in the midfielder, with Atleti’s shock Champions League exit at the hands of RB Leipzig increasing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s chances of securing his man.

The report says that Saul wants to link-up with current United midfielders Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes, who have formed a solid partnership at the heart of the United team during the second-half of the season.

Pogba looked like he was going to be leaving Old Trafford this summer, but Fernandes’ January arrival from Sporting Lisbon gave the Red Devils a real boost and the club went on to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
