According to the Mirror, Jose Mourinho, the upcoming manager of Manchester United is ready to trigger £54million release clause of Atletico Madrid’s midfielder Saul Niguez.
The 21-year-old Spanish midfielder has been one of the best performers this season, and therefore, many European giants are targeting him.
Saul was an unknown figure in the football industry until last year, but his solo goal against the German heavyweights Bayern Munich gave his career a huge lift and that took his team to the Champions League finals.
Now, the Daily Mail reports that Manchester United could activate the player’s release clause and snatch him from Atletico Madrid, but the big issue between the player and the team is the lack of Champions League; Manchester United will not be featuring in the Champions League while Atletico will.
