Manchester United bid for Lazio Midfielder Felipe Anderson

Man United 'scout Samba star ahead of £30m transfer'
Manchester United have launched a bid to sign sign Lazio star Felipe Anderson, with the Italian outfit not willing to sale. 


The Red Devils have launched a £21.9m offer to bring the Brazilian midfielder to Old Trafford but the Serie A side are determined not to lose their key man.

Manchester United have missed out on long-term targets Nicolas Otamendi and Pedro this summer.

United boss Louis van Gaal views the attacking midfielder as a player who can help the club challenge on both domestic and European fronts.

Anderson is contracted to the Stadio Olimpico club until 2020 and while the Rome-based club do not want to sell the schemer, who arrived from Santos in 2013, United's bumper bid plus additional add-on incentives could make it difficult for the Biancocelesti to turn down.
