Manchester United need a world class central defender in the summer window but are they signing two of them?
The Red Devils have been heavily interested in securing the services highly rated Argentine Nicolas Otamendi.
As published earlier, United have convinced the star as far as personal terms are concerned as they look to seal move in summer.
On the other hand, German source Bild has been increasingly sure of late that Man United will seal Mats Hummels move from Borussia Dortmund.
The Dortmund captain is one of the best central defenders in the world and was easily the best CB of a successful world cup winning campaign.
Highly likely that Dortmund will not qualify for next season’s Champions League and firstly Bild claimed that they are ready to sell the star asset to Manchester United for 45 million Euros.
Then, Bild have reported that Manchester United have submitted a bid of 41 million Euros to secure the services of Hummels.
However, they claim that it is not enough and the Red Devils must splash the asking price of 45 million to get him to Old Trafford.
One thing for sure is that Manchester United have ample funds and it will be a mouth watering prospect if they can lure both Otamendi and Hummels in the summer transfer window.
Such top signings will surely solve the defensive dilemma once and for all. It remains to be seen how the transfer saga unfolds.

Pls, Hummel, Varane and or Laporte is Okay, let Johny Evans & probably Jones go, loan out Blackett & perhaps McNair… If we have Hummel, Varane, Rojo, Smalling & Jone/Laporte… We can say we then have a solid rock defense…. Leave otamendi outta this, he’s too costly with that age, Laporte & Varane are still young & can do what Otamendi does now not forgetting the fact that they’re still prospects, if they can do that when they are not yet at their peak then what should we be expecting, bring Clyne in to pair with Rafael….
These two players will also be great for Man utd;Hummels and Varane/laporte they are still young who can do it for a very long time.In addition to Otamendi we can a solid defensive side..
