Manchester United are ready to explore a combined bid worth €170 million for Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali to bolster their squad.
According to Fichajes, Manchester United are prepared to explore a sensational double move for Newcastle United’s Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali. The Red Devils are willing to fork out €170 million for the influential duo, but any deal would come with significant challenges.
Manchester United are making big plans for the summer window, as they are ready to take decisive steps during this transition period. Squad building is paramount as the club looks to return to challenging for major honours next season, while also anticipating Champions League football.
After investing heavily in their attacking set-up, the Red Devils are eyeing another wide player on the left and have an interest in Gordon. The Newcastle United star is on the radar of several big clubs, including Liverpool, who are keen to sign him, while Arsenal are also in the mix.
Manchester United are not only keen on Gordon but also his team-mate Sandro Tonali to strengthen their midfield. Apart from the attacking areas, central midfield is a key priority for the Red Devils this summer, with multiple players expected to arrive in that position.
Tonali is certainly a player of interest to Manchester United, who are also targeting other names such as Carlos Baleba, Adam Wharton and Elliot Anderson. Prising the Italian away from Newcastle United will be a challenge in itself, but the Red Devils are prepared to make a compelling offer.
Manchester United to target Newcastle United duo?
Manchester United are reportedly ready to explore a double move worth €170 million for the Newcastle United duo. The valuations mentioned in the report put Gordon at €95 million and Tonali at €75 million. Whether that aligns with how the Magpies value their influential duo remains to be seen, but it is a compelling offer on paper.
Should Manchester United qualify for the Champions League and Newcastle United fall short in their quest for the same, there is an argument for a potential move. However, the competition for both players strengthens Newcastle’s position, and they may demand significantly more.
