Thiago Alcantara under Manchester United radar – Football news
The Premier League giants, Manchester United, are currently monitoring Barcelona’s young prodigy, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-c34888 Alcantara, and he is expected to sign for the current English champions during this summer transfer window.
It all started when reports about Thiago Alcantara’s buyout clause spread like wild fire. Thiago’s contract state that if he does not play a specific number of games for the Catalan giants, his buyout clause would reduce to 18 million Euros and the Spanish
champions were not able to provide the player with that many appearances.
Alcantara showed a lot of promise when the Euro U21 Cup started. He captained the Spanish side and was able to score a hat-trick in the final of the competition. With so much talent to show for, and a trophy at such a young age, the Spanish midfielder is
definitely a hot prospect in the transfer market.
Manchester United are keen on signing the Barcelona star and he is expected to play for them in the upcoming season.
However, Barcelona do not want to lose their prized asset. The coaching staff and the fans always stated how Alcantara is Xavi’s heir, which is a huge compliment considering how much Xavi Hernandez has accomplished during his lifetime.
Thiago is currently pondering over his situation, while rumours in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 suggest that the agent of the player has already met Manchester United’s representatives.
The two teams are trying to come to common terms for the young superstar. There is a high possibility that Barcelona will include a buyback clause with Alcantara’s contract to Manchester United. Similar clause was present in Bojan Krkic’s contract when he
was being sold to the Italian giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603.
Thiago Alcantara has showed the world what he is capable of. While playing under the likes of Ronaldinho, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Busquets-c33048, there is no doubt that the Spanish midfielder has learnt a lot.
Losing a player like Thiago Alcantara will be a huge loss for a team like Barcelona, who rely too much on their academy to produce players who can perform throughout the year.
