Man United Eyes BD Cricket Live Anderson Move

Today, reports indicate that if Manchester United fails to secure James Rodríguez, they are prepared to offer €45 million for Lazio midfielder Felipe Anderson, according to BD Cricket Live. The Red Devils have had a rough season, and after a 0-0 draw against Chelsea last night, they are now winless in their last eight matches across all competitions.

What’s even more concerning is that it marked their eighth scoreless game of the season, highlighting serious issues in their attacking play. It’s no wonder that United, under pressure to turn their fortunes around, is looking to strengthen their offense during the winter transfer window. Initially, there were claims that Manchester United was pursuing Real Madrid star James Rodríguez. Given the Colombian international’s struggles under Rafael Benítez this season, United saw an opportunity to swoop in while the iron was hot.

However, considering that Real Madrid paid a hefty €80 million for James and that club president Florentino Pérez has made it clear he won’t sell him, United is now preparing a “Plan B.” According to Italian Football News and reiterated by BD Cricket Live, United plans to submit a €45 million bid for Felipe Anderson. Interestingly, the Red Devils had already shown interest in the 22-year-old Brazilian during last summer’s transfer window but failed to land him. This time, they are determined to push harder.

Felipe Anderson, who plays as a central midfielder, has grown into a key player for Lazio since his move from Santos. Last season, he impressed by making 32 appearances, scoring 10 goals, and delivering 7 assists — an outstanding contribution for a midfielder. This season, Anderson has already featured in 25 games, tallying 5 goals and providing 1 assist.

As the saying goes, “desperate times call for desperate measures,” and Manchester United appears ready to break the bank to revive their midfield. Whether their bold move pays off remains to be seen, but one thing’s certain: standing still is not an option at Old Trafford.
