Man Utd eye move for Napoli star, PSG have already bid £67m | OneFootball

Manchester United have started concrete talks to sign one of Napoli’s prized assets this winter, according to French outlet L’Equipe.

The Red Devils are aiming to reinforce their attack, and they are looking at different players in the transfer market.

Paris Saint-Germain’s Randal Kolo Muani was recently linked with the club, but they are yet to make an offer.

United have reportedly identified Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia as a potential replacement for Marcus Rashford.

The club have started ‘concrete contacts’ for Kvaratskhelia, but they are likely to face stiff competition from PSG this winter.

United can’t compete financially with PSG due to financial concerns, but the idea of a swap involving Marcus Rashford has been proposed.

United unlikely to land Kvaratskhelia this month

Napoli have opened the door for the transfer of Kvaratskhelia, but there is no indication that they would like to sign Rashford in a player-plus-cash deal.

United face a difficult task to sign the Georgian international, especially with already offering £67 million for a transfer.

The Red Devils are walking a tightrope when it comes to Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), and they are unlikely to afford Kvaratskhelia unless they manage to recoup funds from player sales.

Rashford has been linked with AC Milan, Juventus and Borussia Dortmund, but all of them are eyeing a short-term loan with a future buy clause.

With PSG already in advanced transfer negotiations for Kvaratskhelia, United are unlikely to hijack their pursuit over the next few days.
