Manchester United are aiming to strengthen their midfield unit with the acquisition of Athletic Club Bilbao midfielder Oihan Sunset.
The 25-year-old has been doing very well in La Liga and his performances have attracted the attention of Manchester United. They are determined to secure his signature and a report from Fichajes suggests they could offer €70 million to get a deal done.
They are looking to sign the midfielder at the end of the season. Manchester United are already leading the charge to sign the goal-scoring midfielder, but it remains to be seen whether they will be able to put together a deal in the coming months.
Arsenal and Tottenham are also interested in signing Sunset.
Manchester United could use Oyhan Sunset
They have relied too much on Bruno Fernandes for goals and creativity in midfield. They need more depth in that area of the pitch. Mason Mount has not lived up to expectations.
Sunset has proven himself in La Liga and has the physicality and technical ability to play in the Premier League. He will create chances for his teammates and also aim for the back of the goal. The Spanish midfielder scored 17 goals in all competitions last season.
Sunset may dream of stepping up
He is at the peak of his career and the time is right for him to take on a new challenge. A move to Manchester United could be ideal for him. He will be competing at the highest level and playing alongside top players.
Even though Manchester United are in a difficult situation, they are one of the biggest clubs in the world with huge resources. They could easily bounce back in the near future and fight for big trophies again. The midfielder won’t need much persuasion to join them.
