Martin Baturina has handed Manchester United a boost in their pursuit of the talented midfielder after turning down a move to Real Madrid. The 21-year-old Croatian, currently playing for Dinamo Zagreb, seeks a prominent role at a top European club, which has increased United’s chances of securing his signature. Several top clubs, including Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, are also interested.
With the recent transfer market buzzing with activity, Manchester United has received a significant boost in their pursuit of Martin Baturina. The 21-year-old Croatian midfielder, currently with Dinamo Zagreb, recently turned down a proposed move to Real Madrid. The Spanish giants had reportedly offered him a five-year contract and planned to send him on loan within Spain, but Baturina rejected the offer, stating he prefers to join a club where he can have an immediate impact and become a key player from the start.
This decision has opened the door for several clubs, including Manchester United, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid, to pursue the young talent. United, in particular, sees a great opportunity to secure Baturina, especially given their recent success in attracting top young players. Baturina has been in stellar form this season, contributing two goals and seven assists in 17 appearances, including impressive displays in the Champions League.
Manchester United’s new manager, Ruben Amorim, has a strong track record of developing young players, which could further sway Baturina’s decision towards Old Trafford. Zagreb is reportedly willing to let him go for around £21 million, making him a highly sought-after prospect in the transfer market. United’s competitive offer, including the prospect of a starting role, could be a deciding factor in landing this promising midfielder and strengthening their squad for the upcoming season.
