After a disastrous start to the season, Ruud van Nistelrooy has steadied the Manchester United ship and Sunday’s 3-0 win over Leicester City means the Red Devils are only four points behind the top-four.
The interim manager’s tenure has resulted in quite a few big stars regaining form but with Ruben Amorim’s entry, a lot is expected to change.
Starting with the formation, with the 20-time English league champions set to play with a back-three, something that quite a few current stars are not used to.
And that means Amorim is on the lookout for players who are comfortable with that system and Inter Live have revealed that the Old Trafford side are looking at Inter Milan’s Yann Bisseck.
Bisseck impressing for Inter
The 23-year-old has improved leaps and bounds since his 2023 move to the Serie A and the Nerazzurri are keen on agreeing a new deal with the German in order to ward off potential suitors.
He has made 11 appearances this season and received plaudits for the instrumental role he played in the Milan giants’ 1-0 against Arsenal where the Germany U21 international cancelled out an in-form Bukayo Saka.
Apart from the three-time European champions, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea are also looking at the centre-back with Inter not willing to come to the negotiating table unless someone places a €40 million bid.
“Appreciation has also arrived from abroad. And especially from England, where many newspapers have highlighted the way in which Bisseck managed to cancel out Saka.
“And, as they often do, the British have already begun to link him to various Premier League teams. For Inter, the boy is untouchable. Unless a high offer arrives.
United enter the race
“It should therefore take around 40 million to snatch him from the current team. Tottenham could come forward. And then there are those who bring up Chelsea and United.”
Julian Nagelsmann is said to have been impressed with the former FC Koln star’s rise and a Germany senior team call-up is pretty close, which should see his value skyrocket even further.
The player has already come out and said that he wants to agree a new deal with Inter despite the criticism he has faced from certain quarters back in Milan.
Simone Inzaghi is a fan and it could be a tricky and costly operation for United should they really want the 23-year-old.
