Manu Koné is attracting the attention of Europe’s top clubs at the World Cup.
The Roma midfielder delivered a top-notch performance in France’s 2-0 quarterfinal win over Morocco: recoveries, bursts of speed, and total control of the pitch.
Now Manchester United, Arsenal, and Newcastle are keeping a close eye on the 2001-born player.
The Red Evils, after blocking negotiations for Ederson, suddenly causing the deal to fall through, can now aggressively turn to Manu Koné.
The English club has already sounded out the player’s agents, so Roma is just waiting for an official offer.
Roma won’t accept offers lower than €50 million for Manu Koné. As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, given that the midfielder turned down Atletico Madrid because he aspires to play in the Premier League, Manchester United may have a certain appeal for the player.
Koné will also start in the World Cup semifinal, and a possible World Cup victory could further increase his price tag.
Roma is keeping a close eye on the matter, and Manchester United is preparing to bid for the 2001-born player. The Roman club will only part with their star midfielder if they accept a staggering fee. It will be up to the Red Evils to shake the Friedkins.
