Reports: Spanish giant in pole position to sign Manchester United’s top target

Manchester United are yet to sort out the future of Paul Pogba at the club and there are reports that Atletico Madrid’s Saul Niguez has been identified as his replacement.

United have been linked with Saul Niguez who will be allowed to leave Atletico Madrid at the rice price this summer.

However, Barcelona are now reportedly the front-runners in pursuit of the Spain international, who is also a target for Manchester United’s rival in the Premier League, Liverpool.

According to a report by Spanish publication AS, Barcelona have an edge over other clubs in the pursuit of Saul in the summer transfer window.

Saul has become an important player under Diego Simeone and Barcelona are reportedly look for a way to bring in the 26-year-old midfielder this summer.

Manchester United might be forced to look elsewhere for Paul Pogba’s replacement or stick with their current crops of players.

Paul Pogba have been linked with a move to Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain. The world cup winner is also reportedly willing to move on with his career.
