'He's the closest one to Carrick': Young insists Marco Veratti would be an ‘unbelievable signing’ for United

Manchester Evening News

 has recommended the club to make a move for 

“They haven’t gone out and replaced Michael Carrick. Don’t get me wrong – Fred and McTominay are good players but I don’t think there’s a Michael Carrick around.

“I was watching the PSG v City game yesterday and I think Marco Verratti is the closest one and nobody’s gone out to test the water to try to sign him.

“I think he would be an unbelievable signing for Manchester United. “

Veratti played a prominent role in helping 

 win the Euro 2020 tournament earlier this year and has performed really well for PSG this season. 

However, the Italian injury-prone nature is perhaps a reason why clubs like United are hesitant to make a move for him – as he’s hardly able to stay fit for the entirety of a season.

Veratti won't go out of PSG with the team they have now... But I like Young's idea, an Italian CDM makes sense as we have seen how Jorginho, Veratti performs...

Well said but all those years was not all Ole's period. Van Gaal and Mourinho bought players that you and know doesn't fit at United Nd it was Ole that had to come in and clear the house. some of the players were actually unsellable and as a matter of fact the squad was bloated.  for that I think Ole has done a good job and this will take time. we've had a good window last time out and I know the next one is of DM as priority,  it's clear.

But how long are we going to talk about CDM? This debate has been dragging on for more than three-four-five years and the disease has been circulating around Old Trafford without a cure 🙄. What a opportunity missed after all those years without finding  solution to the problem. Now here We're still going through the same madness without a cure. We're now paying the price for being stubborn especially our hierarchy, the board and the coaching staff.

This guy is truly unbelievable with his his talent and ability... Even Pep said in his post match conference that he thinks his in love with Veratti lol 😂. Wouldn't be a bad signing at all 😍
