Man Utd given Scalvini’s asking price

Manchester United have been handed a transfer boost this January transfer window.

This comes as Atalanta revealed the asking price of £51.7million for Manchester United to sign their player Giorgio Scalvini.

The report via SportItalia revealed Man United are the newest club to stake an interest in Scalvini after the Red Devils’ scouts sent back rave reports on the defender.

Scalvini’s impressive role at Atalanta has already earned him seven caps for Italy’s national team.

The 20-year-old made his debut for the Serie A club when he was only 17 and has gone on to get regular game time ever since, making a further 73 appearances for the team.

Aside from Man Utd, fellow Italian clubs Juventus and AC Milan are also said to be eyeing up moves for him.

Meanwhile, Man United want to sign Scalvini as Raphael Varane is expected to leave Old Trafford at the end of the season, while there remains doubt over Harry Maguire’s future.
