‘We can’t be selling a player of his quality’ – Reaction as United Baulk At Levy’s £70m Asking Price

|

Manchester United are considering alternatives to Toby Alderweireld as they are “not entirely convinced” that the Belgian is the best target available, according to the Manchester Evening News.

The main stumbling block appears to be the asking price with Daniel Levy holding out for £70m while the Red Devils are only willing to go as high as £50m for the 29-year-old.

Some fans on Twitter believe it could be a negotiating tactic by United, while others are keeping their fingers crossed that it means our no.4 will stay:

Verdict:

It looks as though that Levy is holding out for as much as he can for Toby. The chairman will probably want to get the defender sold, mostly due to the fact that he would be available for only £25m next summer.

Finding a good centre-half in this seller’s market will mean United will come back to the negotiating table at some point, and it’s likely that this transfer will be a drawn-out saga.
