Manchester United And Spurs Watching Serie A Midfielder, But What Could He Offer? Player Report
It used to be a case that when Manchester United wanted a player, they duly got that player when the next transfer rolled around. Now, though, while they continue their struggle under David Moyes, no one knows whether they have the pulling ability that they did under Sir Alex Ferguson. We could find out sooner rather than later as the Express are reporting that they could go up against Tottenham for the services of Inter midfielder Fredy Guarin. But who is he?
Rated at about £17m, Guarin is a central midfielder who has the energy, the creativity and the technical ability to fill the hole that United currently have. Although Inter have had a mixed season so far, Guarin has played in every Serie A game of the San Siro side and created 24 opportunities.
He’s also scored three goals, and completed 52 dribbles despite it still being in the early stages of the season.
He has the vision, also, and could prove to be a brilliant move should he arrive in the Premier League as he works tirelessly to pick out his attacking team-mates.
He’s not scared to have a pop at goal, either. He’s already attempted 38 shots this term, hitting the target with half of them, and he’s also happy to chip in with the donkey work. He has won 21 tackles and 11 headers.
Overall, the 27-year-old is a very impressive player, but Tottenham have a huge number of players in the middle of the pitch, whereas United have few. For me, the Colombia international should choose Old Trafford, if of course there is the opportunity.
