Manchester United are closing in on the signing of highly-rated Lecce defender Patrick Dorgu, with reports suggesting a significant transfer fee is on the cards.

According to Italian publication La Gazzetta dello Sport, United recently submitted a €30 million bid for the 20-year-old Dane, which was subsequently rejected by the Serie A club. However, Lecce are believed to be receptive to an offer in the region of €35 million, plus potential bonuses. Negotiations between the two clubs have intensified in recent days, with Lecce aiming to finalize the deal swiftly and secure a replacement for the talented defender.

Just a month ago, Lecce president Saverio Sticchi Damiani publicly denied any possibility of Dorgu leaving the club during the January transfer window. However, the allure of a lucrative offer from a Premier League giant like Manchester United appears to have swayed the Italian club.

His impact in Italy

Dorgu has emerged as one of the most exciting young talents in Serie A this season, impressing with his versatility, athleticism, and defensive solidity. His performances have attracted interest from several top European clubs, including Juventus, Napoli, Tottenham Hotspur, and Chelsea. .

The potential transfer fee for Dorgu would represent a significant investment for United, but the club is willing to pay a premium for a player of his quality and potential.
