Manchester United chief Ed Woodward needs to up their bid for Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic.
Perisic is Jose Mourinho's top winger target and talks have already been held with Inter Milan.
However, the deal hinges on how much United executive vice-chairman Woodward is willing to pay.
The Daily Star says United are prepared to go to around £44m while Inter are holding out for more.
But the Nerazzurri are demanding £48m to sell Perisic.
