Manchester United must finally solve the defensive dilemma by signing a world class center back this summer.
The Red Devils have been interested in luring Argentine and Valencia defender Nicolas Otamendi and the latest reports seem very positive.
According to reports, Valencia based TV station SillasGol have claimed that Otamendi is closer than ever to signing for Man United.
As published in the provided Metro link, SillasGol’s director also understands that Otamendi’s next destination is Old Trafford.
The 27-year-old South American star was one of the best center backs in the Spanish league last season. He played a key role in helping Valencia qualify for the Champions League with his solid performances at the back.
The Red Devils may have to splash heavy cash to secure his signing, as he has got a release clause of $55m in his contract. Nicolas Otamendi has got the quality to finally fill the void left by legendary defenders Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdiand at Old Trafford.
