Noussair Mazraoui is all set to head to Manchester United. The most recent news of Aaron Wan-Bissaka possibly parting ways with the club came earlier this week. The Englishman is to leave for the West Ham side and will remain in the English Premier League for the coming years. This scenario creates a vacancy in the Manchester United squad for a proper left-back. In an attempt to relive his Ajax days, ten Hag has shown great desire to link up with Mazraoui once again.
More likely than not, it appears that this will go through. However, a last-minute negotiation stall is always possible. But at this time, both sides appear committed to getting a job done. Furthermore, there are even bigger plans if the Red Devils want to sign the defending duo of Bayern Munich, which includes both Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt. This would give them a reliable defensive pair to link up with Maguire and Luke Shaw on the right flank. Naturally, obstacles remain in place if this were to take place.
Financial criteria involved in the concerned signing
According to reliable journalist Fabrizio Romano, “the agreement has been reached,” and Mazraoui is set to take a flight to Manchester. It is being reported that neither of the previously mentioned German club defenders is part of the new boss’ plans in Bavaria. Vincent Kompany has other tactical plans in which this duo doesn’t fit. Selling them in this transfer window will be considered a fair option for the club; if they don’t, it’ll be considered a waste of talent on the bench.
The main ManU target was only given twenty-five minutes of game time this weekday match in a pre-season club friendly against Tottenham Hotspur, where Bayern Munich won the match by a scoreline of 2-1 in Seoul, South Korea. It is believed that the medical is set to take place on Tuesday, and Erik Ten Hag wants Noussair Mazraoui available for the Community Shield Final clash against their in-town rivals Manchester City.
Possible holdups
With immediate effect, Ten Hag wants Mazraoui to sign up and join the team camp to be a part of the derby. As of now, de Ligt’s deal is on hold as both clubs are not on the same page when it comes to transfer fees.De Ligt missed this match as he is currently out of the squad and on a well-deserved vacation after a tiring season where he represented the Dutch side in the Euros 2024. United had made an initial offer to the German giants of a combined fee of approximately $55 million.
This offer was neglected by Bayern immediately, as they thought that United had undervalued these players. Plus, for this young talent, a price tag of around $55 million isn’t enough. As of now, the signing of Noussair Mazraoui is all set to take place at a price tag of about $21 million for a single season, which is being reportedly agreed upon by the Germans.
How Noussar Mazraoui helps Manchester United
The 26-year-old can be a great addition to this United squad. He is versatile, as he mainly prefers his left foot but is an expert with his right one too. With his overpowered defensive skills, he is an attacking veteran as well. He can create spaces from deep to the flag area and deliver excellent crosses into the penalty area, which requires a quality striker like Rasmus Hojlund to have a great leap in the air and score. Manchester United are expected not to waste any time further and sign Noussair Mazraoui, and they’ll be able to have a variety in the left-back position with Diogo Dalot being included in ten Hag’s project.
