Goncalo Ramos, a 21-year-old Portuguese striker has been performing really well in the current season. His recent performance has caught the attention of many clubs from around the world.
Erik Ten Hag is Interested
In the running seasons, Ramos has participated in 12 matches and he has scored 8 times. This is a phenomenal performance demonstrated by the Portuguese and has caught the attention of many.
Even the talent-hungry Erik Ten Hag, who is determined to build a strong team, has found himself interested in Ramos.
Erik Ten Hag, who is eager to build a stronger attacking squad has recently approached the representative of Ramos to discuss the player’s potential move.
Manchester United is interested to sign the player as soon as the January transfer window opens. There is a high chance that the reds may make their move to sign the player.
Ramos’s Current Value and United’s Stance
Goncalo Ramos, who is currently playing for Benfica, a Portuguese football, is reportedly valued at £25 million by the respective club.
Benfica has added a release clause for Goncalo Ramos that is for £100 million on top of his value. Although Manchester United may be ready to meet the £25 million demand, they may not go above that price.
Recent Links of Ramos
In the recent transfer window, it was reported that the player was linked with Newcastle. This is because Eddie Howe, the manager at Newcastle was interested to find a striker for his squad.
However, Newcastle was not the only club wanting to sign Ramos as Bayern Munich had also enquired about him during the same time.
For Bayern Munich, it could have been a move to fill up the spot for their Polish prodigy ‘Robert Lewandowski’.
With the strong performance of the Portuguese striker in the current season, many clubs will be eyeing the 21-year-old.
So far, it has become obvious that Manchester United, Newcastle, and Bayern Munich would definitely make their move to sign the player.
Limited Funds for Manchester United
It has been revealed that Manchester United executives will not be issuing a huge budget for Erik Ten Hag in the January transfer window as they did in the recent window.
Therefore, the manager has to be very careful with his spending and make the right calls so they do not backfire in the future.
Still, there is a factor for the club to realize the need to have a strong team that is able to win titles. If the executives are still considerate of this fact, then Manchester United will definitely have a higher budget to spend.
Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial have already caught injuries in the earlier stage of the running season. Now, the club only has Cristiano Ronaldo, who is 37 years old, and Antony, who has just joined the club to take all the pressure.
