Euro 2024 kicks off on Friday night as Germany take on Scotland. There will be several top talents at the tournament this summer, and in this piece, we take a look at 3 players Machester United could target.
Nico Williams
Country: Spain
Position: Winger
Manchester United are definitely short of top-level talent in attack, and Nico Williams has had an exceptional season for Athletic Bilbao.
Williams, 21, registered 5 goals and 11 assists in LaLiga and could revitalise the Red Devils’ attack. He is a serious target for Barcelona but his recent comments, which also include stressing his happiness at Athletic Club, suggest he’s not interested in moving to Camp Nou.
Joshua Kimmich
Country: Germany
Position: Midfielder
Kimmich can transform every team in the world at the moment. This could also be classified as a bargain signing because the 29-year-old is entering the final year of his contract.
The Bayern Munich midfielder could be picked up for a reduced fee – news that has piqued the interest of several elite sides.
He’s been playing a lot of international minutes at right-back recently, but Kimmich’s club future lies further forward in midfield.
Goncalo Inacio
Country: Portugal
Position: Centre-back
Centre-back is another area soon to need a refresh. Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite appears to be the top target, but Goncalo Inacio is another on the radar.
The 22-year-old Sporting CP star, who comes with a €60m release clause, is seen as one of the most intriguing young defenders around, and this summer will be the perfect test of his true level.
Inacio has impressed in his homeland, but up against some of Europe’s top forwards this summer, it will be fascinating to see how he fares at EURO 2024.
