Super-agent reveals that offers have been incoming for Manchester United, Chelsea transfer target

Posted by

Mino Raiola, the super-agent who represents players such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba, has admitted that he has received an offer for his client Gregory van der Wiel.

The Paris Saint-Germain and Netherlands right-back has long been linked with a move to the Premier League, and as recently as January, he was understood to be under consideration by Manchester United, having previously worked under coach Louis van Gaal during his time with the Netherlands set-up.

Similarly, during the summer, Chelsea were understood to be keen on the full-back, and were considering him as a potential replacement for the ageing Branislav Ivanovic.

Van der Wiel ultimately remained at PSG, and has featured 14 times in the league this season as Laurent Blanc’s side have lifted the French title in record quick time.

However, the 28-year-old may soon be on his way, at least according to Raiola, who has acknowledged—in discussion with RMC [via Le 10 Sport]—that there have been offers for his client, who is out of contract this summer.

“There have been offers for [Zlatan Ibrahimovic], as well as Maxwell and Gregory van der Wiel,” the agent began. “They are players of huge quality, and they can’t be easily found on the market.
