Manchester United comfortably defeated Shrewsbury in the FA Cup last night. It will be fair to say that the FA Cup is now the best opportunity for Louis van Gaal to end the season with a silverware.
The Red Devils badly need to reinforce their squad in the summer transfer window and it seems that they are very serious about signing young Portuguese international Renato Sanches.
According to Portuguese media outlet Record, Man United have intensified their interest in signing the 18-year-old versatile midfielder and continue to scout him.
Capable of playing anywhere in the midfield, Sanches will be a quality addition to the squad but his price tag is very high. As per the provided Record link, the teenage sensation has a release clause of 80 million Euros in his contract.
Not to forget, in the past two seasons, United have signed more than a few midfielders like Herrera, Schneiderlin and Schweinsteiger. Hence, it does not make much sense in splashing heavy cash on a youngster.
Sanches has scored 6 goals and provided 1 assists in 34 appearances for Benfica this season (Transfermarkt).
