Manchester United are reportedly prepared to invest €170 million into signing Yan Diomande and Iliman Ndiaye to bolster their attack.
Manchester United are planning a monumental summer window with the likes of Iliman Ndiaye and Yan Diomande being linked in a bid to bolster their attack. As per Fichajes, the Red Devils are willing to invest around €170 million to sign the wide attackers, although they face challenges ahead.
Manchester United are planning big things for their summer transfer window, as they have a few key areas of the squad that need strengthening. Central midfield appears to be the focus of their recruitment team, but they are also keen to further bolster their attacking setup.
Wide attackers are paramount to their ideas, especially as interim boss Michael Carrick has been using Bryan Mbeumo as a central striker in his system. With Benjamin Sesko providing ample cover in the central zone, the focus will be on the wide areas, with Yan Diomande and Iliman Ndiaye being mentioned as key targets.
The report states that Manchester United are prepared to invest as much as €170 million to sign the wing duo, with €100 million being the asking price for Diomande, while the Red Devils are prepared to make a €70 million offer for Ndiaye. The latter has been a target for them, with the Senegal international reportedly dreaming of a switch to Old Trafford.
Everton are in a strong position in the race to sign Iliman Ndiaye, but they will consider offers that meet their valuation of the player. Manchester United anticipate Champions League football next season, which will be a big boost in their attempts to attract the best talent in the market.
Yan Diomande on Manchester United’s shortlist?
Yan Diomande is the other player that Manchester United are seeking going into the upcoming window, but there is stiff competition from Arsenal and Liverpool for the Ivorian winger. RB Leipzig find themselves in a strong position to demand as much as €100 million for the attacking talent.
Diomande is expected to decide his future after the World Cup, as he is focused on his task with the Ivory Coast. However, in light of the significant interest from top clubs, including Manchester United, there is a probability that he will leave Leipzig in the summer in a big-money move. The Red Devils recently signed Sesko from the Bundesliga giants, which could aid their bid to sign the Ivorian in a meaningful way.
