Manchester United would appear to be wasting no time in the transfer market this summer and, in a show of clarity with regards their exact transfer targets reports today assert that they have agreed a deal for a top midfielder.
The highly respected British media outlet, The Sunday Times, have the inside track on Manchester United’s next transfers and they say:
According to club sources, they also have a deal in place with Germany midfielder Ilkay Gundogan to join them from Borussia Dortmund. All three players are in their early twenties.
Gundogan was out of action for over a year with a serious back injury which required surgery but this season has proven that he is well and truly back on song as he has found the sort of form which made him such a sensation.
Gundogan will add depth to Manchester United’s midfield
At 24, he’s a very fluent player who is very comfortable on both feet, never stops moving and has great technique. He can play as an anchor man or further up the pitch and has even appeared as a number ten for Borussai Dortmund.
While he may not be the only solution for Manchester United in the midfield area, he will certainly add quality and substance to an area of the park which is far too reliant on the gifts of 34 year old Michael Carrick.
Let’s take a look at the lad in action. Manchester United fans: is Gundogan a big enough player to take United forward?
