da realsbet： As reported in an exclusive by The Sun, Manchester United are planning raids on both Everton and Atletico Madrid this summer in an effort to build a squad worthy of a Premier League title chase.
What’s the story?
da dobrowin： United showed on Sunday that on one off occasions they can compete with England’s best but in order to sustain a serious title bid they need more quality and consistency, especially in the final third.
Step forward Antoine Griezmann and Romelu Lukaku who, The Sun report, are Jose Mourinho’s top targets this summer as he looks to take the Red Devils to the next level.
The paper say he is willing to spend up to a massive £160m to land the duo and is set to authorise a doubling of the Everton man’s £120k-a-week wages.
They’re incredible but figures but are the players worth breaking records for?
Firepower
Both Griezmann and Lukaku are having ridiculously good seasons for their respective clubs. Romelu Lukaku has a fantastic 27 goals for the Toffees this season while Griezmann has 24 of his own for Atletico Madrid. Both are providing assists too, 6 for the Belgian and 9 for the Frenchman.
Bringing that sort of firepower to United could spark a new golden era at the club, especially with the likes of Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic likely to be around for another season at least.
If they can reproduce that kind of form at Old Trafford then they’d be worth every penny of undoubtedly high transfer fees.
