Akanji has rejected Dortmund’s latest contract offer with a salary worth €9.5m per year.
Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Borussia Dortmund defender Manuel Akanji. His future at the Westfalenstadion is uncertain and the centre-back will see his contract expiring in the next 18 months.
As per the reports of SPORT1’s chief reporter Patrick Berger, Akanji has rejected Dortmund’s latest contract offer with a salary worth €9.5m (£8m) per year.
Berger also adds in his report that Manchester United are very keen to sign the 23-year-old centre-back, who is valued at around €30m (£25.3m).
The potential arrival of the Switzerland international at Old Trafford would see the defender reunite with former teammate Jadon Sancho. Sancho has played along with him during his time in Bundesliga.
Akanji has featured 148 times in Dortmund outfit across all competitions, including 26 appearances this season.
