Real Madrid and Man United want Mouzakitis

Real Madrid are also interested in securing his signature. According to Football Insider, Manchester United have him on their radar, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move in January. The player is likely to cost around £30 million.

Mouzakitis is a talented young player with a bright future, and he could develop into a top-class player with the right guidance. He could be a future star for Manchester United. They have done well to groom young players over the years, and they will look to help the young midfielder fulfil his potential as well.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid are also interested in the player. Manager Xabi Alonso is reportedly a huge fan of Mouzakitis.

Both Manchester United and Real Madrid could be attractive opportunities for the player, and it will be interesting to see what he decides. He should look to join a club where there is a clear pathway for his development. Sitting on the bench at a big club will not benefit him. He should choose his next destination carefully. He will need first-team opportunities in order to continue his development.

The £30 million asking price might seem expensive right now, but the player could justify the investment in future. The deal could look like a masterstroke if he manages to fulfil his potential in the near future. It will be interesting to see where he ends up eventually.
