Manchester United are expected to put forward an offer for the services of 18-year-old Argentine defender Aaron Anselmino.
According to a report by El Crack Deportivo, Manchester United have been linked with Aaron Anselmino and they are expected to put forward an offer for his services in the near future. The teenage defender has been doing wonders and his impressive performances haven’t gone unnoticed.
Anselmino has been at Boca Juniors for years. While he might not have been promoted to their first team yet, the 18-year-old is a part of their second team and his performances suggest he could soon make the jump to the senior team.
The Argentine centre-back has well over four years left on his deal but given the amount of interest in his services, he could be leaving his home country soon. Ezequiel Fernández is already subject to a lot of interest from across Europe. The 21-year-old midfielder has been doing wonders for Boca Juniors and top clubs want to sign him.
The Argentine club are well aware of this situation but they have also learned about the amount of interest in the services of Anselmino. Manchester United are the ones reportedly interested in the teenager’s services. The Red Devils are all set to undergo a massive rebuild, they are expected to focus on young players with huge potential.
The 18-year-old certainly seems to be a player of their interest. The Manchester-based club feel he could do wonders for them in the long run and are willing to invest in him. Defence has been a problem for the Red Devils and Anselmino’s potential suggests, he has it in him to be a special player.
People at the Argentine club are aware of it and they await an offer from the Red Devils’ end. Boca Juniors are well aware of the amount of interest in the teenager and have already shielded their player with a new deal that was penned down just a week back.
They have shielded him with a new deal that has a release clause worth more than $20 million and are ready to let him be a part of their first-team squad. If reports are true and United are preparing an offer they will have to ensure that is close to that exit clause to stand a chance to sign him in the winter.
