Goncalo Inacio
According to Correio da Manha (via SportWitness), Manchester United have been persuaded to sign Sporting Lisbon defender Goncalo Inacio following his performances against Arsenal.
The Portuguese has been on the radar of Premier League sides for some time and Corriere da Manha claims United scouts were on hand to watch him against the Gunners in the Europa League.
The report adds that the Red Devils have been impressed with the 21-year-old's performance and are now 'convinced' to make a move. Sporting expects £ 31 million to part with this midfielder.
Potential
United currently have Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez as options for central defence. Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof and the occasional Luke Shaw are backups.
Maguire was recently tipped to make a surprise move to Paris Saint-Germain and his departure could pave the way for United to reinvest in another young centre-back this summer.
Inacio would be a great signing with the first years of his career ahead. He has shone for Sporting in the Primeira Liga, Champions League and Europa League.
In the game against Arsenal, he scored in the net from a corner. He also made important defensive contributions for Sporting despite conceding twice - one of which was an own goal.
Inacio would be the perfect assistant for the Reds and would provide worthy competition for Lisandro Martinez at left-back as he is left-footed.
Shaw plays this role when Martinez is out of training, but having a professional take over the job will do United a lot of good for the 2023/24 season and beyond.
United will return to the Premier League against Southampton on Sunday afternoon. They can be 10 points more than the 5th ranked team Liverpool in the race to win tickets to the Champions League if they win.
