Manchester United are preparing to enter the summer transfer window, which could shape the course of their squad for years to come.
The Red Devils seem to be gaining momentum on the pitch with current interim coach Michael Carrick, however, there remains much to be done off the pitch.
The midfield department has been identified as a key area of interest and one of the positions of priority for Manchester United, especially with the upcoming departure of Casemiro at the end of the current campaign.
The transfer market in the Premier League is extremely competitive, and any signing will be subject to interest from other clubs.
Manchester United are looking at several options in the transfer market, but there is one particular player who has reportedly been added to their list of targets.
Sandro Tonali has been making waves in the Premier League this season, and Manchester United are reportedly interested in the Newcastle United man.
According to talkSPORT, his current displays in the Premier League have caught the eye of Manchester City.
Arsenal also seem to be interested in signing him.
For United, he is a player who could potentially slot straight into the first team and help stabilise a period of transition.
Newcastle, though, are in no hurry to sell.
The Magpies rate Tonali highly and want a huge fee before selling him.
A price tag of between £80 million and £100 million is said to have been placed on Sandro Tonali in order for Newcastle to even consider a sale.
This has left United in a tricky situation, especially if they are to compete with City and Arsenal.
The Old Trafford outfit must now decide whether it is worth shelling out a huge amount of their summer kitty by meeting Newcastle’s transfer demands.
