According to current reports in the Italian media, Manchester United are likely to sign Kim Min-Jae from Napoli.
Last weekend, we covered a story through (Corriere dello Sport) claiming that the Red Devils are very close to acquiring the Korean midfielder.
Also, earlier today, we posted another story (via CdS) saying that Diego Armando Maradona's outfit won't stop the Asian star from moving to Old Trafford.
Another story from Italy (La Repubblica via CN24) also says the PL giants are ready to trigger a €60m release clause to sign the former Fenerbahce star.
Moreover, Man Utd are even willing to pay a salary of 6 million euros per season or around 100,000 pounds per week for Kim Min-Jae, who is passionate about such a salary. Remember, the Italian champion only receives a very low salary, around 2 million euros/year (CN24).
As a result, United are willing to triple their current terms to secure his signature.
For now, the reports are very optimistic and it would be a big deal if we could sign the player, who is arguably the best defender in Serie A this season.
