Man Utd to step up pursuit of Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez

Manchester United are ready to make a significant move for Atletico Madrid's Saul Niguez.

According to the Daily Mirror, the Red Devils are preparing a summer bid for the 21-year-old midfielder who has a reported buyout clause of £25million.

Niguez is contracted with Atleti until the summer of 2020 but that has not stopped United from showing their interest.

The Old Trafford outfit have had scouts watch the 15-time Spain international over the past 12 months and are believed to now be ready to go after the former Real Madrid youth.
