Manchester United might offer €80 million to sign Thibaut Courtois from Real Madrid if the Qatar takeover goes through.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Defensa Central, Thibaut Courtois might become the subject of interest from Manchester United if Sheikh Jassim successfully takes over the club.
And the Red Devils will submit an offer worth €80 million to Real Madrid for the 31-year-old.
Since then, the 31-year-old has gone from strength to strength, becoming a pivotal figure for Real Madrid.
Courtois’s performances have often made him the brightest spark whenever the Merengues falter.
But a move to Manchester United might be on the cards for the experienced Real Madrid shot-stopper.
Widespread reports earlier this year suggested David de Gea would sign a new contract at Old Trafford.
Meanwhile, recent reports have suggested Manchester United will sign a goalkeeper even if de Gea renews terms with them.
And Courtois’s name might also feature on their wishlist.
The report claims that Manchester United will launch the offensive for the Real Madrid goalkeeper if Sheikh Jassim is successful with his bid to take over the club.
And the Red Devils will offer €80 million to Real Madrid in such a scenario.
In addition, they will table a €20 million-a-year contract to the 31-year-old.
It will be interesting to see if Sheikh Jassim successfully takes over Manchester United from the Glazer family.
And then, it will be intriguing to watch if a deal worth €80 million sees the light of day for the Real Madrid goalkeeper.
