Manchester United are planning a major midfield rebuild this summer, and a Real Madrid star has emerged as a dream target.
Manchester United has had a season with ups and downs that led to the change of coach from Amorim to Carrick. The new interim manager of the club has had a great start to the journey with the Red Devils so far and has brought back a lot of joy inside the team and around the atmosphere of the club in general.
Not only is Carrick working on the pitch with the players in order to get the best results possible for United, but the club and the directors are also working towards their plans for the upcoming summer transfer market. As it seems the club is focusing on strengthening a particular part of the team, which is the midfield.
A lot of names, not only from the Premier League but also abroad, have attracted the interest of the Red Devils. United is following different profiles of midfielders, and they intend to buy 2 new midfielders for next season.
A midfielder that United is very interested in is Federico Valverde, a midfielder of Real Madrid. Valverde has been playing for Real Madrid for many years now, and he has been a key element of their successes in recent years.
Federico joined Real Madrid from Penarol in 2016 and, year after year, has raised his level and has become more important for the Spanish team. This season, the Uruguayan midfielder has had a season of ups and downs, and rumors are circulating regarding the opportunity that he will search for a new adventure in the summer.
The Red Devils are very interested in signing him from Real Madrid because they see Valverde as a player who can be a fundamental key for the return of United to the level that the club deserves. Manchester United was also interested in signing the midfielder last season.
Based on reports from Spain, it seems that the midfielder has also opened the opportunity to be transferred to England at United. He seems not to have a good relationship with the current coach of Real Madrid, Arbeloa, and if Arbeloa remains the coach of Real Madrid for the future, he is ready to leave and play for United next season.
