Sky Reporter: £17m Manchester United pulls contract U-turn, tells his club he wants Premier League move

Manchester United’s pursuit of Galatasaray right back Sacha Boey in 2024 might be gaining momentum, providing a potential boost for the Red Devils.

With the final international break of 2023 underway, United supporters are already looking ahead to upcoming fixtures, including a challenging visit to face Galatasaray in the Champions League.

Sacha Boey, who delivered an impressive performance at Old Trafford earlier in the season, has reportedly caught the attention of United, with scouting efforts underway for a potential move in 2024, as reported by Fotospor in October.

Recent developments suggest a positive turn for United, as Aksam reports that Galatasaray offered Boey a new contract, including bonuses, worth around £25,000-a-week.

While Boey initially responded positively, he has reportedly made a U-turn at the last moment, expressing his desire to move to the Premier League.

United, along with Arsenal and Brighton, are mentioned as potential suitors, with a €20 million (£17 million) fee being discussed.

Boey’s clear inclination towards a Premier League move could prompt United to closely monitor the situation and potentially make a bid.

However, the right back situation at United needs careful consideration.

The ongoing battle between Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka has left the club seeking more consistency in both defensive solidity and attacking dynamism from the right-back position.

While Dalot recently secured a new five-year deal, Wan-Bissaka has a one-year option in his contract, set to expire next summer.

United may need to make decisions on the future of these players before pursuing alternatives.

Boey emerges as a potential solution, but a January move might be surprising, considering United’s potential reluctance to add a third right back to the squad.
