Mason Mount is another player with a long layoff; it is expected that the midfielder will not return from his most recent injury until at least January. The Danish full-back, who might soon be Ruben Amorim’s first acquisition at Old Trafford, is apparently ready for United executives to start formal talks and make a bid.
Romano claims that Lecce had originally planned to let go of Dorgu in the summer and had expected attention from Napoli, who wanted to reach an early deal for his entrance. Man United, however, is prepared to pursue Dorgu’s transfer in January since they now think he would enjoy a move to the Premier League.
Lecce and United have already begun negotiations over a deal for Dorgu, and according to Sky Sports Italy, a delegation from the Premier League team arrived in Italy on Tuesday to begin in-person talks this week.
United deal to sign Dorgu in danger of being blocked by Napoli
Man United officials are in Italy to have direct talks with Lecce on Dorgu’s coming, Romano disclosed in an exclusive interview with GIVEMESPORT: “It’s a concrete opportunity for Manchester United.” In order to meet directly with Lecce, they have traveled to Italy.Therefore, Man United and Lecce will have discussions and engage in negotiations.
“Lecce had originally intended to sell the player in the summer rather than during the January transfer window.”They therefore gave preference to other teams, like Napoli, who desired to complete the transaction before the summer transfer market opened. “However, Man United is willing to try to start concrete negotiations to present a bid.” They believe the player may be very eager to join the Premier League.
However, if United could match Lecce’s asking price of €40 million (£33.8 million), they may beat Napoli to a deal. In the meantime, Napoli and United are in advanced talks to sign Alejandro Garnacho during the January transfer window.
