MANCHESTER UNITED have made a £17.7million bid for Lazio midfielder Lucas Biglia.
Manchester United make £17.7m bid for Lucas Biglia
United have already recruited two midfielders this summer, with Morgan Schneiderlin and Bastian Schweinsteiger both arriving at Old Trafford for a combined £39m.
And Lazio have reportedly told the Red Devils they must pay another £21m if they want Biglia, who is also a target for Real Madrid.
But, according to Corriere dello Sport, Louis van Gaal is confident the club's £17.7m bid will be enough to land the defensive midfielder.
His agent, Enzo Montepaone, told lalaziosiamonoi.it earlier this month: "I will soon be in Italy for talks [regarding his future] with [Lazio] president Claudio Lotito."
