The battle for the services of standout Juventus centre-back Gleison Bremer is heating up between two Premier League giants: Manchester United and Chelsea. These English clubs are willing to put a lot of money on the table for the Italians to sign the Brazilian next summer.
Bremer’s future has long been the subject of speculation and United view him as their key target to strengthen their defensive line in the upcoming summer transfer window. However, the London Blues refuse to be left behind and are rumored to be ready to challenge United in the fight for the Brazilian.
Although Bremer recently extended his contract with Juventus, a relatively low release clause of around €50 million has attracted interest from several European clubs, including United and Chelsea, ManUtdnews reports. For the Blues, the potential departure of Thiago Silva at the end of the season makes the search for a quality replacement all the more urgent, and they see Bremer as the perfect candidate to fill that void.
United, under the leadership of Erik ten Hag, sees Bremer as the ideal candidate to strengthen their defense. His impressive physique and consistency in the Italian Serie A make him an attractive target for both Premier League clubs.
Willing to pay a real million
Despite the high wage demands of Bremer, who currently earns a significant sum at Juventus, both United and Chelsea appear ready to compete for his services. However, qualifying for European competitions could give United a crucial negotiating advantage.
With Raphael Varane’s contract in its final stages and no contract extension activated, United face the crucial decision of whether to rely on Varane’s experience or look for a new talent like Bremer.
