Manchester United is one step away from acquiring a Morocco national team defender

Manchester United is on the verge of acquiring Bayern Munich's right-back Noussair Mazraoui.

According to insider Nicolo Schira, the parties are in the final stages of negotiations. The clubs have reached an agreement, and Mazraoui will move to United for €15M, with an additional €5M to be paid as bonuses. The contract will be signed until 2029.

The 26-year-old Moroccan joined Bayern in the summer of 2022 from Ajax as a free agent. As part of the Munich team, the right-back played 55 matches in all competitions, scored 1 goal, and provided 8 assists.

Today, it was also reported that Manchester United has reached an agreement to extend the contract of Portuguese midfielder Bruno Fernandes. The player’s salary under the new agreement is expected to be "top level."

Additionally, Manchester United plans to sign Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern and former Atlético Madrid defender Mario Hermoso.
