Man Utd, Liverpool, Man City offered €75m centre-back as Sevilla opt to sell

Sevilla are hoping to cash in on Diego Carlos and have offered the defender to three Premier League clubs, claims a report in Spain.

Carlos was also named in the La Liga team of the season by Marca, and the paper claim Julen Lopetegui’s side are now willing to cash in on the Brazilian,

Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United all considering a deal, Marca report, after being contacted by the LaLiga side.

Los Rojiblancos know that Carlos’ stock is high and are well aware of the Premier League trio’s need for a centre-back.

Sevilla want to continue their investment in the squad and if they can bank close to his release clause they will willingly let Carlos depart.

That is set at €75m, although in the post-Covid transfer market Football Espana suggest the club “may consider bids significantly lower”.

 

 

Goal claimed Sevilla received two significant bids from English clubs over the summer. The first offer arrived in June, with the second coming in July.
