Manchester United are planning to sign a new midfielder. The main character is Leicester City’s Yuri Thielemans.
The British ‘Express’ reported on the 16th (Korean time) that “Man United are monitoring a deal for Thielemans after the terrible injury of Donny van de Beek.”
Manchester United are flying high this season under Eric ten Haag. After losing 1-3 to Aston Villa before the World Cup break, they are on a nine-game winning streak in all competitions. Naturally, the league rankings also skyrocketed. There is still a gap with 1st place Arsenal (47 points), but they are in 4th place in the league with 38 points. The gap with 5th place Tottenham Hotspur is 5 points.
But one bad thing happened to Manchester United. Van de Beek, who is active as the team’s rotational resource, was out for the season due to an injury. Van de Beek started against Bournemouth on the 4th. Van de Beek, who had a chance to start after a long time, blew a path to the team’s attack by going back and forth between the right flank and center.
However, he suffered a serious injury and was substituted out. Van de Beek was injured by Senesi’s tackle in the 41st minute of the first half, and eventually left the ground. The injury was more serious than expected. “Van der Beek will not be available for the rest of the season and he will return in pre-season ahead of next season,” manager Eric ten Haag said ahead of the match against Manchester City.
It is bound to be a big concern for Manchester United, which has a tight schedule ahead. Manchester United, including the league race, advanced to the semifinals of the English Football League Cup (EFL Cup), advanced to the fourth round of the English FA Cup, and advanced to the playoffs of the European Football Federation (UEFA) Europa League (UEL).
He was naturally connected to the midfielder. The main character is Leicester’s midfielder Thielemans. Belgian national Thielemans has always been linked to Manchester United. After wearing the Leicester uniform in the winter of 2019, he has been active as a mainstay of the team, making great strides every season.
Thielemans is a defensive midfielder with the ability to score goals. At Leicester, he was in charge of the midfield, taking one of the double pivots with Walfred Ndidi. When he has the ball, he is a player who shines even more. Thielemans is good at driving and dribbling the ball himself, and his kicking power is also sharp, so he is good at passing the ball forward at once through a killer pass. 바카라
It is known that there is no official proposal yet. England’s ‘Vavel’ explained, “Man United are interested in Thielemans, but there is no offer yet. He is one of the possibilities after Van de Beek’s injury.” However, in addition to Manchester United, Newcastle United and Arsenal are also known to be interested. However, it is unlikely that a large transfer fee will occur for Thielemans as his contract expires in June.
