David Moyes is ready to sanction a £25m bid for long term target Ezequiel Garay as he sets about ushering in a new central defensive partnership.
Old Trafford boss David Moyes has his heart set on bringing in the Benfica centre-back as a replacement for Inter Milan bound captain Nemanja Vidic and will hope to welcome in the Argentine international this summer.
Garay’s efforts this term have led his Lisbon based side to the top of the Primeira Liga table, having conceded just 15 goals in 23 fixtures, and into the last eight of the Europa League.
Garay has done well to re-ignite his career following a stuttering spell at Real Madrid and may feel that his career progression would be better served by a move to the Premier League side though Man United’s efforts will be significantly helped if they can secure a Champions League berth for next term.
