Manchester United tipped to raid Spain… but this time it’s a new name

Prospect

A week barely goes by without Manchester United being linked with spectacular moves for Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale or Neymar.

Realistically, the thought of Manchester United pulling off any of those transfers would be a bit of a stretch – especially given their form in recent weeks.

But reports in Spain suggest that United are readying a La Liga raid, as they eye a move for Atletico Madrid midfielder, Saúl.

The 21-year-old has represented Spain at every level and is being linked with a move to Old Trafford by COPE radio’s Ruiz Antonio.

We’re not entirely sure how credible the reports are, but hey – at least it’s a change from the usual three names.
