Manchester United could quickly take action and try to strengthen themselves with the arrival of young Portuguese talent Geovany Quenda.
At 17, he is already an essential part of Sporting and is also part of Roberto Martinez's plans for the national team. A feat which testifies to the exceptional potential of Geovany Quenda, whom many observers now consider to be one of the new faces of Portuguese football. Thus, the nugget of Sporting should not make old bones within his training club, while several European clubs already wish to enlist him.
Manchester United in contention for Geovany Quenda?
An obvious connection: while Ruben Amorim has just arrived at Manchester United, the Portuguese press is already associating the English club with several players who have already worked under the young technician. This was particularly the case for Viktor Gyokeres, but in the last few hours, it is the name of Geovany Quenda which has come up insistently on the Manchester side.
This Monday, A Bola talks about a particularly concrete interest from the English club for the young Portuguese talent. According to the source indicated, negotiations could begin at the astronomical amount of 60 million euros, to which should be added bonuses linked to the player's performance among the Red Devilsin the case of a future transfer.
The race for the nugget is on
The amounts mentioned may seem staggering. For good reason, although he has been particularly successful at the start of the season, and in particular in Sporting's matches in the Champions League, Geovany Quenda has only played around twenty matches at the highest level. However, these were clearly enough to make the young Portuguese player one of the most coveted players on the market. Still according to A Bola, other major teams on the continent, such as Paris Saint-Germain, would also consider making an offer to Sporting in the hope of enlisting the 17-year-old winger, who has a release clause at 100 million euros.
As the winter transfer window approaches, the interest shown by the biggest clubs on the planet in the young prodigy continues to increase. On the other hand, regarding Manchester United, the potential arrival of Geovany Quenda is not planned for next January. Indeed, if they wish to take action, Red Devils will have to wait this summer until the young left-hander comes of age to be able to add him to their professional squad.
Until then, the leaders of Manchester United will inevitably keep a particularly close eye on the feats achieved by the young hopeful within his training club. Already supervised on several occasions by Red DevilsGeovany Quenda should generate ever more concrete requests over the coming months, before experiencing a summer which promises to be particularly eventful.
