Galatasaray Set to Increase Bid for Manchester United’s Fred Amid Transfer Talks
Galatasaray is set to make another attempt to acquire Manchester United’s Fred, as reports suggest they will submit an increased bid for the Brazilian midfielder. Initially, the Turkish club had offered €5 million in an effort to test United’s willingness to let go of Fred, but their proposal was promptly rejected.
However, Galatasaray is not deterred and plans to return with an improved offer. They aim to leverage Fred’s desire to leave Old Trafford as a bargaining chip in negotiations, according to Aksam. The Turkish side hopes that this will give them an advantage and pave the way for a successful deal. Follow your favourite Premier League team with attractive football betting odds from 1xBet.
One factor working in Galatasaray’s favor is the absence of any competing bids for Fred. Despite interest from fellow Premier League club Fulham, Manchester United has yet to receive any other offers for the midfielder. Galatasaray recognizes this and believes that if United manager Erik ten Hag is firm in his decision to offload Fred, they have a good chance of securing the player and minimizing any potential losses before the transfer window closes.
Ten Hag is actively seeking to trim his squad and create room for new signings, thus increasing his transfer budget for the remainder of the summer. As for Fred, he is well aware that his playing time at Manchester United will be even more limited next season following the arrival of Mason Mount. It is clear that a move away from Old Trafford would be in the best interest of his career.
The negotiations between Galatasaray and Manchester United for Fred’s transfer are poised to enter a critical phase. As Galatasaray prepares to present an improved offer, the outcome of these discussions will determine whether Fred will don the famous red shirt for another season or make a fresh start elsewhere.
