Manchester United are weighing up a move for Sevilla midfielder Lucien Agoume, with the Spanish side placing a €40 million release clause on the Frenchman — www.naijnaira.com reports.
According to Orgullobiri, the 23-year-old has become a realistic target after United cooled interest in Carlos Baleba due to his €132 million valuation.
Agoume’s contract at Sevilla runs until 2028, though Inter Milan will pocket 10% of any future transfer fee as part of his original deal.
Market estimates put the midfielder’s value between €8 million and €23 million, which means United see him as a smart, cost-effective reinforcement.
Last season, Agoume played 35 matches in LaLiga, scoring once and registering three assists despite Sevilla’s struggles in finishing 17th.
He averaged 2.9 tackles and 1.8 interceptions per game, while maintaining an 83% pass accuracy, numbers that underline his defensive strength and composure on the ball.
Ruben Amorim wants energy and versatility in his midfield, and Agoume’s profile fits that demand perfectly.
Standing tall and physically strong, he can anchor midfield while also progressing play under pressure.
Although United lead the chase, rival Premier League clubs are also keeping close watch on the situation.
