MU quickly contacted Jules Kounde
Along with the plan to buy Kim Min Jae - a football and commercial development deal, MU has the opportunity to recruit central defender Jules Kounde.
Spanish press revealed that Kounde was not satisfied with his position at Barcelona, when he always had to operate on the right wing.
In coach Xavi Hernandez's plan, Ronald Araujo and Andreas Christensen are the two top priority central defenders. That is the reason Kounde announced that he wants to leave Camp Nou.
MU quickly contacted Kounde. The former Sevilla defender was also contacted, but he wanted to participate in the Champions League, so the advantage belonged to the "Red Devils".
Barca have said they will only let Kounde leave for €80m. However, United could pressure the negotiations to drop to €50m - the amount the Catalan giants paid for the 24-year-old Frenchman last year.

MU plans to negotiate with Jeremie Frimpong
Leverkusen's board of directors understands that keeping Jeremie Frimpong in German football is not easy, so they have agreed on a transfer fee for the young Dutch player.
According to German press, Leverkusen wants the transfer fee for this 22-year-old defender to be 50 million Euros.
Frimpong has been one of the best right-backs in Europe this season, especially explosive in attack. He has scored 9 goals and been involved in 11 others.
Leverkusen received many offers for Frimpong from English football. Bild revealed that MU of coach Erik ten Hag was the most eager.
Negotiations between Leverkusen and MU are expected to be carried out soon. Currently, coach Xabi Alonso has a replacement for Frimpong in Arthur (Arthur Augusto de Matos Soares), a 20-year-old player who has played one match for the Brazilian team.

Coach Pep Guardiola needs a new central defender
After a meeting with coach Pep Guardiola, Man City football officials decided to finalize the transfer plan for central defender Josko Gvardiol.
Man City scouts have been closely monitoring Gvardiol for about a year now, especially during the 2022 World Cup. Coach Pep Guardiola is also very fond of the Croatian player.
This season, Pep created a revolution by pushing John Stones into midfield with Rodri. The Spanish coach needed a new central defender to increase the depth of Man City.
Furthermore, Man City do not rule out the possibility of selling Laporte - who wants to go to Barcelona to play more as a starter. Therefore, buying Gvardiol is a priority.
Gvardiol has been a standout performer for RB Leipzig and has previously stated that he wants to stay in Germany for a while longer. The 21-year-old centre-back is expected to decide his future after the German Cup final (June 3) - a tournament in which he and his teammates defend their title against Frankfurt.
