Manchester United Set to Launch Second Bid for Atletico Madrid Midfielder
Manchester United are keeping a close eye on Conor Gallagher’s role at Atletico Madrid.
Interest in a New Midfielder
The club is looking to strengthen its midfield in January. After checking Gallagher’s availability during the summer transfer market, Manchester United are prepared to make another attempt when the winter window opens.
Current Situation of the Player
The England international is now in his second season with Atletico Madrid. Manchester United are interested in a possible loan-to-buy deal. A similar proposal was rejected by Atletico in the summer.
Financial Proposals and Alternatives
United are considering adding a permanent transfer option valued at £45 million. Gallagher is viewed as a potential replacement for Kobbie Mainoo, but he is one of several names being evaluated, including Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba.
