Manchester United are having a tough time selling players. Many of their players left the club as free agents, and one of them is now close to securing a move to La Liga.
The Red Devils have had a very bad recruitment structure. That is why selling players at the right time and at the right price has been a struggle for them.
Many players like Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic in the past left as free agents. However, under Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ruben Amorim, the Red Devils are looking to change this.
Now, one of the players who left Manchester United last year as a free agent is now attracting interest from a La Liga club.
Yes, according to journalist Nicolo Schira, Spanish club Celta Vigo is eyeing a move for former Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof.
The Swedish international played 7 years for the red side of Manchester. He represented the Old Trafford side 194 times in the Premier League and 26 times in the Champions League.
Overall, Lindelof played 284 games for the Red Devils. Now, the Sweden national team captain is looking to build his club career elsewhere.
Apart from Celta Vigo, the 31-year-old is drawing attention from Bayer Leverkusen, according to a Swedish outlet.
Erik ten Hag is the manager of Bayer Leverkusen at the moment. The Dutch manager has managed Lindelof during his time at Old Trafford.
Also, Leverkusen have lost Jonathan Tah, who joined Bayern Munich this summer. So, they are looking at Victor Lindelof as the German’s replacement.
Thus, a transfer race is beginning for Lindelof, and it will be interesting to see which club signs him.
