Manchester United Eyes Midfielders with Transfer Deadline Looming
Manchester United wants to improve its soccer team.
They were hoping to get a player named Carlos Baleba, but the price was too high.
Now, they're looking at another midfielder named Lucien Agoume from Sevilla.
Agoume could cost around £26 million.
United is also interested in Morten Hjulmand.
Another team, Arsenal, also wanted Agoume earlier but decided to get different players instead.
Manchester United is reportedly interested in signing Sevilla midfielder Lucien Agoume.
United's interest in Carlos Baleba has faded due to a high asking price.
Agoume has a release clause of £34.5 million but his price could be lowered to £26 million.
United is also considering a bid for Sporting CP's Morten Hjulmand.
Arsenal previously showed interest in Agoume but signed other players.
