Serie A Duo Close To Manchester United Moves?
Napoli centre-back Kim Min-Jae and Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot are two names heavily linked with Manchester United with deals reportedly in progress.
South Korean international Kim Min-Jae, who signed from Fenerbahce last summer, has played a massive part in winning Napoli’s first Serie A title in 33 years and is regarded as one of the world’s best centre-backs.
Min-Jae has recorded 16 clean sheets in Serie A this season and has started all but two league games for the Italian champions.
Reports from Italy now suggest that the defender has agreed to join Manchester United and that the deal is down to a “matter of details”.

Kim Min-Jae isn’t the only Serie A name on the radar of Manchester United.
Last summer target Adrien Rabiot is still heavily favoured by ‘Red Devils’ manager Erik ten Hag and the Dutchman is keen on bringing in the Juventus man.

Ten Hag has reportedly spoken with the Frenchman about a free transfer in the summer but the player is weighing his options up.
It is believed that Adrien Rabiot dreams of playing in the Premier League.
Manchester United are said to be keen on wrapping this deal up as soon as possible.
Despite these strong rumours, there is still no clarity on the Manchester United takeover with contrasting reports suggesting Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Qatar’s Sheikh Jassmin are still battling it out for the ownership of the club.
This uncertainty also leads to a doubt in Man United’s budget for the upcoming transfer window.
