Manchester United eye Villarreal’s Pape Gueye, price could hit €60 million | OneFootball

Manchester United have placed Villarreal midfielder Pape Gueye among their summer priorities and are said to be willing to go to €60 million, according to Superdeporte.

The Senegal international has been one of Villarreal’s most reliable performers this season, adding balance, ball-winning and range from box to box. His consistency has grown and Marcelino now views him as essential thanks to his reading of the game and intensity in the press.

Gueye underlined that form in the win over Valencia. In 58 minutes he scored from the spot, made two key passes and won five duels, shaping the tempo and breaking lines on the ball.

His profile fits the Old Trafford brief, combining power, recovery and clarity in distribution after a notable campaign at La Cerámica.

Villarreal are aware of the growing interest and expect any approach to start from a high base, given his status in the side. A lively summer is in prospect around one of their standout names.
