‘Please Be True’ ‘Don’t Believe That For A Second’ Fans React As United Are Named Among 3 Clubs Who Have Bid £27m For Brazilian

Manchester United, Everton and Napoli have all made €30m (£27m) bids for Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes, according to reports in the French media.

Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is said to be looking for a left-sided centre-back, and it seems they have identified the Brazilian as a key target.

Supporters on Twitter have been debating whether a move for Gabriel would be a good idea:


Villarreal’s Pau Torres is another name that has been mentioned in recent days, while they have also been urged to sign Bournemouth’s Nathan Ake, although he now looks destined to sign for Manchester City.

Gabriel is the cheapest of the three and it could well be the case that United are saving the baulk of this summer’s transfer budget to spend on Jadon Sancho.

It remains to be seen if the Lille centre-half has the quality to dislodge Victor Lindelof if he does seal a move to Old Trafford.
