Breaking news: Bye -bye pogba : ralf ragnick seals Manchester United swoop deal for extraordinary £63m rater monster.

 Manchester United are rumoured to 

be taking a step back from the winter 

transfer window, as Ralf Rangnick 

occupies his time focusing on the 

current players and his plans for 

an overhaul of the squad in the summer

, with a question mark hanging over 

the future of one particular star and 

a replacement rumoured to be 

on the horizon.

Paul Pogba’s expiring contract 

has been a hot topic, as his agent

made it clear that the player will 

move on in the summer, and Manchester

United will be working hard to identify

the right replacement to seamlessly

fit into Rangnick’s side to fill the 

hole the World Cup-winning Frenchman

will leave if he does depart Old 

Trafford in a few months time.

One player who has been touted 

with the club is Sergej Milinkovic-

Savic, who has recently been linked

with a move to the North West club

according to Calciomercato. Last week it was reported that 

Manchester United are leading the 

race to sign the Serbian international

from his current club, Lazio and 

it seems like he could be the perfect

replacement for Pogba when and 

if he does leave the club this summer.

The Serie A midfielder was hailed 

by Parma sporting director, Demetrio

Albertini who once said:

“Milinković-Savić has the characteristics

of a great champion; he has extraordinary

elegance.”

According to One Versus One, the 

£63m-rated star is the number one

for assists and is third for the most

accurate key passes in the Serie 

A, as well as scoring seven of his

own goals already this season in 

all competitions.

This kind of output is something that

is greatly needed at Old Trafford right

now, with the club expectations to secure 

Champions League football. However

, the side has scored less goals than

any top-four team, and at least 

15 fewer goals than any of the top 

three in the Premier League, which

as a result has seen the side 

unable to climb into a position to finish

with qualification for Champions League

football so far, sitting currently in 8th.

Despite the quiet transfer window 

so far, there is no doubt that Rangnick 

will be working on finding players 

like Milinkovic-Savic ahead of next 

season, who can join the side and 

make an instant impact.

Sadly, it looks unlikely that the 

German coach will look for quick fixes

halfway through, so fans will have 

to hope that their current squad can 

pull it together to see out the season.

Either way, the Serb would certainly 

be an exceptional replacement for 

Pogba if he departs.
