Man Utd join Saudi Pro League outfit 'in the race' for old transfer target
@Source: mirror.co.uk
Manchester United are said to have rekindled their interest in Fabian Ruiz after originally trying to sign the Paris Saint-Germain star back in the summer of 2022. The Spain international, 29, became the subject of interest from United as they looked to revamp their engine room after failing to lure Frenkie de Jong to Old Trafford. Ruiz ended up joining PSG from Napoli, though, instead of moving to Manchester. The Red Devils ended up signing Casemiro from Real Madrid and shelved interest in De Jong, who is still on the books at Barcelona . But a fresh report from France claims that Ruiz is back on United's radar as they seek to reshape a beleaguered squad which were responsible for the club's worst ever Premier League finish last season. Footmercato claim that Al-Nassr from the Saudi Pro League are also keen on the idea of signing Ruiz, who is contracted until 2027. Unfortunately for United and Ruiz's other suitors, the report goes on to add that PSG - and in particular Luis Enrique - value the midfield maestro as a key figure in the team that emphatically won the Champions League last month. They would prefer for 'continuity' in the engine room with Ruiz striking up a tidy understanding with Joao Neves and Vitinha. United are keen to add quality signings in their bid to rebuild under Ruben Amorim and have already captured Matheus Cunha from Wolves , with Brentford 's Bryan Mbeumo expected to follow him through the door. Join the debate! Would Ruiz be a good signing for Man Utd? Let us know here Further signings are expected, though outgoings will be required if Amorim is to have the flexibility he desires in the transfer market after United failed to qualify for the Champions League last term. It's said United are keen on the experience Ruiz would bring to Amorim's team. He has won three consecutive French titles since swapping Naples for Paris and has 39 international caps to his name for Spain, whom he won Euro 2024 with. United have also been linked with a new goalkeeper after another mixed season for Andre Onana. It has since been reported, though, that the Cameroon star is planning to stay and fight for his place at Old Trafford.
