That Manchester United is interested in Saúl Ñíguez is nothing new. From the offices of Old Trafford They have been closely following the footballer for a long time and although there have been approaches, nothing has ever materialized. The player, who renewed in the summer of 2017, agreed with Atlético de Madrid a termination clause of 150 million euros.
And according Daily star, that would be the number that the English club would be willing to reach in order to bring a footballer that the rojiblanco club does not want to sell. With 150 million, what would be the most expensive signing in the history of the team, they would only need the consent of the soccer player to get him out of there.

In any case, Saúl is not the only objective of the red devils, who have the player of the Birmingham, Jude Bellingham (to which they would yield after hiring him once he turns 18 in June), to the Dutch of Ajax, Donny van de Beek (closely related to the Real Madrid) and of course, to the great promise of England, Jadon Sancho (to the Borussia Dortmund offers will rain down on him.)
Saúl has not stated at any time that he wants to leave and he is an important part of Diego Pablo Simeone's team. So far this year, he has scored four goals in 37 games and has a long-term contract until 2026, so it will not be easy to get him out of the Spanish capital, much less if he wants to combine his transfer with that of Jadon Sancho. Meanwhile, the footballer is focused on his club, of which he said that they have not yet been told anything one hundred percent about a ERTE, and in the fight against the coronavirus, joining the initiative 'We will go out together'.
