5 Midfielders that Manchester United should target this summer

#2. Marco Verratti

Italy Training Session And Press Conference

Without a doubt, the most prestigious player on this list by a mile is none other than Marco Verratti. The Italian is one of the best central midfielders in the world today and every top team would like to have him in their ranks.

He’s creative, passes the bass exceptionally, is positionally astute, breaks opposition’s play and sit backs to screen the back line. He’s exactly what this United team needs in terms of stability.

Still very young, Verratti will provide United with value for money paid and offer a great resale value. He’s also the player that may cost United the most were they to bring him to England. Of course, with PSG having their eyes on Herrera, United can sweeten the deal with sending Herrera the other way with a huge transfer fee as well.

If not, they will have to fork out upwards of 100 million to get the Italian to Old Trafford.
