Manchester United must make Saul Niguez a priority

After the stunning 1-1 draw with Southampton over the weekend, it was made quite clear that Manchester United needs another stud midfielder on the team. Fred and Nemanja Matic were a disgrace on the pitch.

Enter Saul Niguez? Per a report, United has high interest in the Atletico Madrid midfielder. With that said, Chelsea is also in the mix to try and get him to town as well.

Manchester United and Chelsea have been offered the chance to sign Saúl Ñíguez from Atletico Madrid but significant hurdles will have to be negotiated if either club is to complete the signing of the Spain midfielder.

For United, they must prioritize him. If the team is serious about pushing for a league title, they have to improve the midfield play. Niguez would be a major boost for the club.
