Red Devils to offer £15m for Arsenal captain Thomas Vermaelen to ward off Barcelona interest
There are new developments in the club’s pursuit of another defender though, with £15m expected to be offered for Vermaelen after Barca tabled a £10m bid on Wednesday, according to the Daily Mail.
The Belgium international has been strongly linked with a move away from the Emirates Stadium this summer due to a lack of game time and Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has admitted he could be sold.
The North Londoners are concerned about selling Vermaelen to a direct rival though, so United are likely to have to out-bid the Catalans if they want the 28-year-old.
