Manchester United preparing £43million bid for Juventus star after Dan Ashworth recommendation

Manchester United are reportedly pursuing Juventus star Gleison Bremer on the recommendation of incoming sporting director Dan Ashworth.

Ashworth looks set to become United’s first-ever sporting director after being put on gardening leave by Newcastle United – though the two clubs are yet to agree on a compensation package.

Nevertheless, he is supposedly already having a say on their transfer policy in what will be a huge summer for the club as Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks to get them back on track.

According to reports from Italy, via the Daily Express, Bremer is on the Red Devils’ shortlist and they have been tracking the centre-back for months.
