A new report has stated that Manchester United could now be closing in on a new centre back signing this summer. A report in France has stated that a defender has decided to join United and is now only ‘one step away’.
A new and emerging report from France states that AS Monaco defender Axel Diassi has chosen to join United in the upcoming window. United have been heavily linked to the defender over the past few weeks and months.
The report comes from French news outlet L’Equipe, they say; “AS Monaco’s Axel Disasi is one step away from joining Man United. Disasi has decided to join United. The two clubs must now agree a fee.”
The report states that Diassi has agreed to join United but negotiations are yet to begin between the clubs. Some suggest that the Frenchman may be an alternative target if the Red Devils fail to sign Kim Min-Jae.
The clubs would still have to negotiate and agree on a fee with Monaco wanting around £25-£30million for the centre back. United are focused on signing a midfielder and striker first.
