Manchester United receive Manuel Akanji 'boost' and more transfer rumours
26.03.2022 - 06:33 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United have been handed an apparent boost in their attempts to sign Manuel Akanji from Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund this summer. According to reports, the Swiss defender has rejected a new contract offer and he will leave for around £20million during the upcoming window.
Despite settleing on Raphael Varane as a long-term partner for Harry Maguire last symmer, United continue to be linked with further moves in that position due to heavy criticism surrounding their £80million captain. Antonio Rudiger has been highlighted as another potential option.
Off-field issues at Chelsea mean the Germany international could be available on a free transfer this summer. Akanji, meanwhile, might be subject to a cut-price switch after this latest development.
READ MORE: How the players who left Manchester United this season are faring
German publication BILD suggest the 38-cap international has resisted the temptation to stay at Dortmund and is keen to explore other options at the end of this season. The 26-year-old touched down in the Bundesliga from his native Switzerland in 2018 and has made 29 appearances this season.
Elsewhere, it's claimed United have revived their interest in Marseille starlet Boubacar Kamara. However, in order to land the Frenchman this summer, United may have to edge out Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich and Tottenham in the race for his signature. Southampton are also reportedly keen.
Goal credit those five clubs with an interest in a player who is out of contract this summer. Manchester Evening News understands United are set to prioritise central midfield signings when they are able to get down to busines again.
Kamara, 22, specialises as a holding midfielder, but can also play at centre-back.
