Manchester United Transfer News Now: Ten Hag is desperate to reinforce United’s backline and has identified Kim Min-Jae is an option
Manchester United is getting closer to securing South Korean center-back Kim Min-Jae to bolster their team for the next season. The highly skilled defender is being sought after by the Red Devils, showing their intent to contend for trophies next season. Kim’s current club, Napoli, and Manchester United have also reportedly been in negotiations regarding a prospective transfer for the highly sought-after striker Victor Osimhen, which further demonstrates United’s desire in the transfer market.
Despite only joining Napoli last year, Kim Min-Jae, 26, has been on Manchester United’s radar for a number of months. During Napoli’s successful Serie A title-winning campaign, the South Korean international had a major influence and received praise for his efforts. His noteworthy performances have caught the attention of United, who have earmarked him as a vital target to bolster their defensive line.
Kim Min-Jae’s entourage has been contacted by Manchester United, indicating their genuine interest in signing him. The talks between the teams have also included conversations about a prospective transfer for Victor Osimhen, a highly regarded striker for Napoli, according to the Mirror.
Despite the fact that Kim’s contract is thought to have a €50 million (£43 million) release clause, United is committed to making the transaction work. The Red Devils’ scouts have been keeping a close eye on Victor Osimhen and Kim Min-Jae because they both have the ability to help the squad succeed in various ways. The competition from other Premier League teams, including Newcastle and Paris Saint-Germain, who are keeping an eye on the Nigerian striker’s position, has increased United’s interest in Osimhen.
