Man Utd's £250m problem as new boss faces summer decision over two players

Manchester United could have to pay up to £250million if they were to sign Wolves and West Ham duo Ruben Neves and Declan Rice.

The Red Devils’ next transfer priority appears to be strengthening their options in midfield . Paul Pogba looks set to depart the club on a free transfer at the end of the campaign, while the experienced Nemanja Matic will enter the final year of his deal at the end of the campaign.

Nevertheless, it is an area of the field United fans and pundits have been crying out for reinforcements, even when they managed to secure the arrivals of Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Cristiano Ronaldo last summer. Unfortunately, any new midfield option would likely require Old Trafford chiefs to break the bank, as Neves and Rice have seemingly had nine figure price tags slapped on them.
