Manchester United turned to Ousmane Dembele after failing to get Jadon Sancho. Manchester United’s ambition to borrow Dembele, who is often injured with Barcelona.
An offer of 91.2 million pounds from Manchester United to get Sancho was rejected by Dortmund. The offer is lower than Dortmund, who are claimed to have pegged £ 108 million for the transfer of Sancho.
After failing to get Sancho, Manchester United is claimed to have diverted the target to Dembele. Manchester United management claimed that the Daily Mail will not make a new offer for Sancho and prefer to bring in Dembele.
Manchester United management is claimed to be in talks with Dembele and Barcelona. The French national team player is rumored to be coming to Old Trafford on a one-season loan and United have the option to make Dembele’s contract permanent.
These financial constraints could increase the percentage of Dembele’s move to Man United. Because, Barcelona is in need of money to bring Memphis Depay.
Manchester United’s decision to bring Dembele was criticized. The reason is, Dembele has been absent since he was recruited by Barcelona from Dortmund in 2017 because of an injury.
Dembele has been sidelined for more than 100 days in his first season with Barcelona due to a hamstring injury. Muscle and hamstring injuries also made Dembele more absent from Barcelona last season.
The French national team reserve player when he won the 2018 World Cup only appeared in nine matches with Barcelona last season.
However, Dembele is not devoid of enthusiasts. Despite frequent injuries, Dembele is also reportedly a target for Liverpool. Reportedly, the Reds want to make Dembele a coating for Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah.
Manchester United itself has difficulty recruiting new players this season. The club which is based at Old Trafford just got Donny van de Beek from Ajax Amsterdam. Manchester United’s attempt to get Gareth Bale, Alex Telles, and most recently Sancho has so far failed.
