United linked with 'Spanish Messi'

Iker Muniain

According to sources from the Spanish media, Iker Muniain could soon be at Manchester United as a replacement for the goal shy Nani in the left wing department. When Nani finally leaves the doors of Old Trafford, United will have only one senior left winger in the form of Ashley Young. Spanish sources say that Muniain is headed for the exit and wants to move away from his club. According to them, Muniain could be available for 25 million pounds. Iker Muniain is also nicknamed as the “Spanish Messi”.

The young Spanish star is already in his third full season as a starter despite being just 19. His technical skill and pace are his main weapons. Moreover, Muniain always delivers for Athletic Bilbao in the big matches. A source inside Manchester United has revealed that when Nani (most probably) leaves in January, a bid will be submitted for the Spanish prodigy.
