Manchester United are favourites to sign Juventus defender Gleison Bremer

Manchester United's pursuit of Juventus defender Gleison Bremer appears promising, with reports from Tuttosport suggesting the Red Devils are frontrunners in securing his signature. Identified as a priority target for bolstering their defensive line, Bremer's robust performances in Serie A have caught United's attention. With a reported budget of €50 million, negotiations may hinge on Juventus' insistence on a higher fee, possibly around €60 million. 

At 27, Bremer's age raises concerns about his suitability as a long-term investment. However, his impressive statistics, including an 87% passing accuracy, 1.8 tackles won per game, and strong physical presence, underscore his immediate value to United's defensive setup. Despite reservations regarding his age, Bremer's attributes and consistent performances could make him a significant addition to United's squad, aligning with their ambitions under Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS.
