Manchester United is chasing La Liga star despite competition

Although Manchester United have had a great start to the season under their new manager, with fifth place on the Premier League table and a knockout round in the Europa League, the team still needs some addition to play batter.

Erik Ten Hag joined in the summer from Ajax after three years with the Dutch giants and brought in a few new faces to the club with him. Former players Lisandro Martinez and Antony Santos joined from Ajax. Christian Eriksen was signed for free and Casemiro was priced away from the Spanish capital.

The signings required a lot of financial pull, which saw the club fork out over 200 million euros to jump-start the Ten Hag era at the helm of affairs. The quality of the signing certainly necessitated the need for such financial investment.

United is reportedly still very much interested in improving its current team with several targets being closely monitored for any availability on the transfer market. Their current interest takes them to Spain for a key priority of theirs.

WHO IS MANCHESTER UNITED INTERESTED IN?

Manchester United is reportedly watching Martin Zubimendi closely after sending a scout to Spain t keep an eye on the 60 million euros rated Real Sociedad star. United are yet to officially table their interest in the player and could face heavy competition from FC Barcelona, who are also interested in him.
