Manchester United Close in to Sign €38m Superstar: Talks Held

Louis van Gaal has been widely criticized of late because of his stubborn tactics of using his favorite 3-5-2 formation.
In all honestly, the Dutch manager must take most of the blame for not being able to improve the attack despite having so many top quality players in that department.
As far as defense is concerned, the fact remains that whatever formation he may use, United’s defense can only be improved if a World Class central defender is signed, one who can lead the entire line as a unit.
According to latest reports, Paris Saint-Germain’s center half and Brazilian international Marquinhos is linked with a move to Old Trafford.
As per the provided link, Man United are closing in to sign the €38m and talks have already been held over a possible deal.
However, the question remains, will a 20 year old star become the leader of United’s defense. The young defender is as highly rated as French international and Madrid star Varane but for now finds himself in a complex scenario.
Compatriots Thiago Silva and David Luiz have now formed a strong central defense partnership for the French champions leaving Marquinhos with limited playing time.
Marquinhos has made 12 league appearances for the French giants this season and was an unused sub in the last 3 league games.
The former Roma star could push for the transfer in to make things easy for the Red Devils as far as completing transfer is concerned.
