United are about to loan French striker Anthony Martial to La Liga Sevilla and are also in talks with Premier League's Newcastle United on Jesse Lingard's transfer. Newcastle has accelerated its transfer work after the Premier League enters its winter break, with Jesse Lingard and two defenders being the focus.
According to the Daily Telegraph, Newcastle has contacted Manchester United and is willing to pay a loan fee of 6 million pounds to get the right to use Lingard in the second half of the season, and the Magpies will also bear 100% of their 100,000 pounds a weekly salary. The "90min" report even said that Newcastle was so thirsty for talents that they directly quoted a staggering £10 million lease fee for Lin Huang!
Currently, Newcastle is 18th in the Premier League, just one point away from relegation zone, and Eddie Howe has signed right-back Trippier and centre-forward Chris Wood, but he still needs more new signings, including Jesse Lingard and Sevilla centre-back Diego Carlos. The team is also pursuing a large number of players such as Brighton midfielder Yves Bisuma and Juventus' Bentankur, as if they have replaced Manchester United as the number one "price-raising united" in European football.
In addition to the loan fees for Manchester United, Newcastle also offers Jesse Lingard considerable personal treatment, and if he leads the team to relegation, he will receive an additional bonus, equivalent to a salary of £150,000 per week.
According to British media rumors, Newcastle would have liked to buy out Jesse Lingard directly, but manchester United's contract is about to expire at the end of this season, when he can transfer for free, he will have more choices and better treatment, for example, Ligue 1 second-place Nice, has become interested in the 29-year-old Lingard, and West Ham, who joined Lin Huang last season, is also one of the candidates. Therefore, Lin Huang wants to retain the second option, so the winter window prefers to leave the team on loan.
Currently, Jesse Lingard is on holiday in Dubai with Manchester United team-mate Marcus Rashford, and the two have not forgotten to keep exercising, posting videos of training in the gym.
If United can successfully rent out Jesse Lingard and Martial, get a loan fee of 11 million to 15 million pounds, and save 350,000 pounds a weekly salary, then Ronnick still has a chance to introduce a new back in the final moments of the winter window.
According to British media, 22-year-old Ligue 1 Marseille midfielder Boubacar Kamara is one of the options, and Manchester United will compete with teams such as Leeds United for him. Like Lingard, Kamala's contract is only half a year away, so the deal can be completed for £10 million. Kamala asked for £150,000 a week in salary and Leeds United has already started talks with his agent. Spain's Marca newspaper announced that Real Madrid and Barca may also join the competition.
Another midfielder has also heard a scandal with Manchester United, and Porto's 21-year-old core Fabio Vieira has been accused of getting the attention of 10 clubs including Manchester United. Fabio Vieira has assisted nine times in 21 games this season, and Portugal's "Record" said that Manchester United's scouts are looking at his game, and Clubs such as Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Saint-Etiennes, Real Sociedad, Sassuolo, Nimes and others are also watching.
Vieira is not a back, he is a striker or a striker, and United need to add to that position as Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata and Van der Beek are all likely to leave the squad. However, the need to bring in an attacking midfielder is less pressing and United are more likely to take action in the summer window.
