Manchester United have increased their verbal offer for Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana, according to renowned journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.
The Red Devils have identified Onana as their top goalkeeper target and talks are currently underway with the Nerazzurri over the transfer fee.
Earlier this week, Di Marzio revealed that United are ready to offer the Cameroonian €40m and they have now raised the amount to €45m.
However, the club aren’t close to a deal as the Nerazzurri continue to demand €60m for his sale.
United must sign Onana ahead of pre-season
The Red Devils are expected to announce the signing of Mason Mount from Chelsea today, but they need at least one more signing before the start of the pre-season tour.
Onana is currently at the center of United. Negotiations are ongoing with the Nerazzurri but the Serie A club are reluctant to offer a fee reduction.
The club are yet to make an official offer but have yet to make their verbal proposal. An offer of around €50m plus €5m in surcharges could convince Inter.
Onana has established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in world football. Last season, he completed 78% of his passes with six long balls per game.
The 27-year-old also impressed with his commanding nature in the penalty area, as well as his ability to play as a free keeper. It would be a great update for David de Gea.
De Gea’s contract expired at the end of last month, but renewal negotiations are scheduled with him. In our view, an extension seems unlikely as he would not want a backup role.
