Update: Manchester United Target Staying Grounded

If recent reports are to be believed from several media houses, Manchester United are seriously interested in Renato Sanches. The 18 year old Benfica winger has been impressing several clubs across the Europe and did the same in the Champions League game against Zenit. He played full 90 minutes in that match and was asked about the interest from Manchester United.

The player has grown up in Benfica and mentioned that he is happy to stay at the club. He is one of the highly rated teenagers and has a release clause of £62 million indicating his potential. Barcelona and Real Madrid are also interested as per A Bola and feels that his price tag is quite justified by the performances he has been displaying.

O Jogo reported that United had made a bid last month and will be bidding again. It has to be noted that in January United had a bid £31 million plus £15 million in add-on rejected.
