Sami Khedira’s potential departure from Real Madrid seems increasingly likely, especially in light of his reduced playing time due to both injury and the rise of Luka Modrić. With Carlo Ancelotti reportedly planning to reinforce the midfield further, Khedira may find opportunities even more limited at the Bernabéu.
The interest from Manchester United, as reported by the Daily Star, aligns well with their need for a strong, experienced midfielder. Louis van Gaal, known for building solid central spines in his teams, is reportedly keen on making Khedira a key figure in the heart of his midfield.
A €20 million offer is said to be in the works, which could be considered a reasonable fee for a World Cup-winning midfielder in his prime. For Khedira, the Premier League would offer a new challenge and the chance to reestablish himself as a starter at a high-profile club.
If this move materializes, it could be a win-win: United gain leadership and steel in midfield, and Khedira gets the regular football he’s currently lacking in Madrid.
