14 Starts, 8 Assists – Man United Ready to Seal €19m Deal

If there is one position Manchester United need to fill badly this winter, it is that of a creative midfielder.
Since the retirement of legendary Paul Scholes, no one has been able to fill the void left by the United legend and it is about time David Moyes signs a quality star.
Having failed to sign the likes of Alcantara, Fabregas and Herrera in the summer transfer market, Red Devils will be eager to sign a brilliant midfielder in winter at the earliest.
According to reports, Manchester United are ready to seal deal for Atletico Madrid midfield maestro Koke who has a release clause of €19 million in his contract.
With multi million pounds signing Fellaini failing to shine and other midfielders also not helping much to dominate the midfield battle. Koke is exactly the kind of player they need.
In 14 league starts this season for Atletico, the Spanish international has scored 3 goals but more importantly he has provided no less than 8 assists and currently leads the chart along with Fabregas and Neymar with the same figures.
The 21 year old boy has been exceptional to say the least and been one of the most influential players this season. He is one of the main reasons why Atletico are flying high above rivals Real Madrid in the league.
David Moyes should forget other central midfield options and must splash the cash to activate Koke’s release clause and sign him before other suitors make move. He is one for the future.
