One of the names that most seduces in the halls of Old Trafford is that of Exequiel Palacios, mainstay of the surprising Bayer Leverkusen, a team that leads the Bundesliga undefeated and is in the round of 16 of the Europa League.
The 25-year-old from Tucumán, with a past at River, is a key piece for Xavi Alonso as he played 22 games, in which he scored five goals and provided two assists. As revealed by Daily Star, the intention in Manchester is to get rid of Casemiro for a figure close to 40 million euros and use a good part of that money to go in search of the world champion in Qatar 2022.
The other option is to Guido Rodríguez, who is recovering from a fracture in the fibula of his right leg. The central midfielder seems to be far from reaching a contractual agreement with Real Betis of Spain and would have the pass in his possession in June, which makes him a more than desirable piece for several of the main European institutions.
The former River, who was previously in the orbit of Barcelona, Roma and Lazio, is also wanted by Arsenal and Atlético de Madrid. The 29-year-old has played in 19 games so far this season, with one goal and one assist.
