Manchester United and Newcastle target represented by the same agency as Bruno Fernandes has a €60m price tag.
Goncalo Inacio who plays for Portuguese side Sporting CP has garnered interest from multiple clubs like Manchester United, Newcastle, Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur, as reported by Dutch publication Voetbalnieuws.
Inacio has quickly proved himself to be one of the best defenders in Portugal. At the age of 22, the Portuguese national could soon be on his way to the Premier League.
If The Red Devils want to sign the youngster they will have to beat out clubs like Newcastle United, The Lilywhites and the Los Blancos. A tall task for the newly instated management at Old Trafford.
Manchester United do have a small advantage over the others though. It looks like Inacio uses the same agency as the Red Devils’ skipper Bruno Fernandes (transfermarkt). This should help them move quicker than their opponents.
According to the Spanish publication SPORT, Real Madrid are also very serious about signing the youngster. Their defence has a hole in it due to David Alaba’s recent injury and Inacio is the perfect piece to fill the gap.
This season the 22-year-old has made 23 appearances for Sporting CP, and he has managed to score three goals for the team as well (transfermarkt). Inacio has all the makings of a world-class talent, the fans at Manchester United would love to see him don the Old Trafford outfit.
