According to Florian Plettenberg, Manchester United are in pole position for the signature of Marcel Sabtizer. A Marcel Sabitzer Manchester United deal is an emerging story, but with a plane already on the runway in Munich the chances of completing the deal are higher than ever. The Austrian has been renowned for his “intense and aggressive pressing” that could transform the way that the team plays. James Ducker of The Telegraph noted that the player is due to fly to Manchester to make the move.

Who Are Manchester United Competing With?
There is relatively little competition against a Marcel Sabitzer Manchester United move, with Chelsea being the main opponent. In spite of the London club’s interest in the player, this isn’t necessarily likely to lead anywhere. Chelsea have more of a focus on Enzo Fernandez at the moment, with a medical booked for the Argentinian midfielder. In essence, the Red Devils are the only ones competing for Marcel Sabitzer’s signature for the rest of the season.

Why Manchester United Need Marcel Sabitzer
The Old Trafford hierarchy is looking for a midfield signing after the loss of Christian Eriksen. The Dane is likely to be injured until the last month or two of the season, which limits Erik ten Hag’s options in the middle of the pitch for the majority of the Premier League’s remaining matches.
Marcel Sabitzer adds exactly what Manchester United need, bringing more creativity to the side in addition to an aggressive pressing game. This means that the Dutchman can focus on bringing a more entertaining style of football with high-quality resources. Although the Austrian isn’t getting many minutes at the moment, he has more than enough quality to bring his new club a greater level of success.
