Reports indicate that Manchester United is closely monitoring Alex Baena, the Villarreal player, as an option to enhance the attacking playmaker position in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Baena, who is 23 years old, has excelled in La Liga this season, scoring 6 goals and assisting 7 for his teammates, making him one of the top playmakers in the Spanish league.
According to reports, Manchester United has shown serious interest in the player, who is also attracting attention from Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Baena has a release clause of 60 million euros, but there are reports suggesting that Villarreal may accept a lower offer in the summer, increasing the competition among major clubs for his services, which could complicate Manchester United’s efforts to secure his signature.
