Alvaro Morata's agent claims Manchester United have made an 'important' offer Featured

Manchester United have made a "very important offer" for Alvaro Morata, the Real Madrid striker's agent has said.

United have been heavily linked with the 24-year-old Spain international as they look to add attacking reinforcements to cover the loss of last season's top scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Morata's agent, Juanma Lopez, revealed that free-spending AC Milan have also shown an interest in the former Juventus hitman but says Madrid have rejected an "unsatisfactory" offer from the Italian side.

"It's a club with a lot charm, a very interesting option," Lopez told Calciomercato of United.

"I can say that there's a very important offer and the decision now rests with Real.

 

"I cannot tell (if an agreement is close), we'll see."

Morata had been the subject of a rejected £52.4m bid last week, according to Sky in Italy

Regarding Milan's interest, Lopez added: "I can confirm there had been regular contact until a few days ago. Quite simply, Real Madrid considered the offer from the Rossoneri unsatisfactory."

Sky in Italy reported last Tuesday night that United had seen a £52.4m offer rejected by the Champions League and La Liga winners, with Real thought to want in the region of £78m for the forward.
