Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has strengthened key departments since becoming the manager of Manchester United but thus far, he has not been able to improve the central midfield.
If reports in the media are anything to go by then the Red Devils have the chance to sign a top midfielder for a very cheap price. The player in discussion is French international Corentin Tolisso.
Last year, the Old Trafford outfit made contact with Bayern Munich to hire the services of the former Lyon midfielder and as per Mohamed Bouhafsi, the Bavarians asked for a fee of 35 million euros (£29.6million).
As far as this summer is concerned, today, L’Equipe (via Sport Witness) have revealed that new manager Julian Nagelsmann does not have the Les Bleus star in his plans for next season. Therefore, the German champions are prepared to sell him,
The renowned French news source have mentioned that Man Utd appreciate the profile of Tolisso and an offer of just 10 million euros (£8.4million) would be enough to secure the signing of the star, who will be out of contract next year.
So, Man United can get a £21.2million discount as compared to last year if they opt to pay the asking price to sign the World Cup winning midfielder this month.
Corentin Tolisso is a talented player but the dilemma is that he is highly injury prone. The 27-capped international spent majority of the time on the treatment table in the last two seasons and started just 14 games in the Bundesliga.
In your view, should Man Utd offer £8.4million to sign the 27-year-old from Bayern?
