Manchester United has been linked with a surprise bid for Bayern Munich midfielder Serge Gnabry.
According to Fichajes (via Manchester Evening News), Manchester United intends to launch a high-profile bid for Bayern Munich midfielder Serge Gnabry. Bayern would be willing to let their star depart for roughly 60 million euros, according to the Spanish outlet.
The 28-year-old has made 222 appearances for Bayern, scoring 81 goals and assisting 51 times. Gnabry came through the Arsenal youth system but only appeared in 18 games for the London club.
His difficult experience in England may provide him with further motivation to prove his worth if he decides to return.
The German international has received praise for his intelligence, as well as his off-the-ball movement and creativity. Gnabry is athletically well-built, with pace and power and the ability to play with both feet.
He is also a diligent worker who assists his teammates by hunting them down when they are not in possession.
United’s offensive now lacks firepower, particularly in wide attacking areas. Antony has been granted a leave of absence by the Red Devils, while Jadon Sancho is facing disciplinary action.
The English heavyweights are struggling with form, having lost three of their five Premier League games thus far. If United is unable to improve their status within the club, they will be forced to use the transfer window.
Gnabry is in his prime years and could slot into United’s right-wing position if the move goes through.
The transfer market is undergoing substantial inflation, and it is uncommon to find players of Gnabry’s caliber priced at around 60 million euros. United manager Erik ten Hag recently noted that once United is involved, player prices seem to rise.
Manchester United fans will be watching Gnabry’s performance with bated breath following this unexpected development. The Red Devils will face the German titans in their first Champions League match this week.
