Manchester United and Barcelona are both prepared to pay €30m (£26m) to sign Inter Milan midfielder Marcelo Brozovic, according to reports in the Italian media.
The 28-year-old did not have the best time at the European Championships with Croatia but he was an integral figure as Inter won the Serie A title last season. The majority of supporters on Twitter think he would be a decent purchase:
He is good, so much better than what we have in that position

We should get him for free, Inter has to pay 40 mil still for Lukaku

Na this makes too much sense !
Bargain for a top top player … signs a new deal— ?? (@UtdBradz) July 2, 2021
The Red Devils are not expected to spend huge amounts after shelling out on Jadon Sancho but they could take advantage of Inter’s reported financial difficulties in order to snap up Brozovic.
United will certainly be looking to strengthen their midfield options this summer. Nemanja Matic is not getting any younger, while Scott McTominay and Fred will need to be rotated, so if Brozovic is available for a reasonable price, it would make a lot of sense to go after the Croatian international.
