Euro Paper Talk: Man Utd eye huge double raid on PSG; Barcelona out of race for €25m Liverpool target Manchester United are eyeing a shock double raid on PSG, while Barcelona have ruled themselves out of a move for a €25m Liverpool target, according to Thursday’s European papers. MAN UTD EYE STUNNING DOUBLE RAID ON PSG Manchester United have been offered the signing of Paris Saint-Germain star Adrien Rabiot this summer, a report claims. The French international, who has allegedly fallen down the pecking order at the Parc des Princes, has been linked with a move to Liverpool, while Chelsea and Tottenham are also said to be keen. Recent reports have suggested that the 23-year-old is said to prefer a move to Real Madrid, where he could be part of a reconstruction under Zinedine Zidane, who recently began his second spell as the club’s head coach. However, the latest reports claim that United have been offered Rabiot as the Frenchman is seemingly struggling to find interested parties. The report also claims that the Red Devils are interested in his team-mate Thomas Meunier, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer set on signing a right-back this summer. MAN UTD SUBMIT INSANE BID TO WIN DE LIGT RACE Manchester United have reportedly submitted what can only be described as a ludicrous offer to Matthijs de Ligt in an effort to win the race for the €70m Ajax defender. De Ligt, just 19, has emerged as one of European football’s most-sought after defenders after an incredible season with the Dutch champions. The player is widely believed to be hoping to join Barcelona, who his Ajax teammate Frenkie De Jong is also due to sign for this summer. But with Barcelona struggling to agree terms for De Ligt, thanks in no small part to his agent Mino Raiola trying to engineer him a bigger package elsewhere, United have now submitted an incredible offer to lure the teenager to Old Trafford. According to Sport, United have offered De Ligt an incredible €14m a year deal over a five-year contract – a salary that would equate to £235,000 a week – and more than double what Barcelona had been willing to pay. Furthermore, it’s suggested United have topped Barcelona’s offer of €65m to Ajax by a further €5m in an effort to convince Ajax to do business with United first and foremost; the argument being that United see the player as someone who will only get better and the man they want to build their side around – potentially for the next decade. Sport also believes the offer puts United firmly at the front of the queue to sign De Ligt – quite the turnaround given the player was reported to have scoffed at the Red Devils’ approach earlier this year.
