English representatives "Chelsea" and "Manchester United" are interested in adding Portuguese club "Sporting" winger Fafé Gonalves to their squads in the winter transfer window.
Idman.Biz reports, citing the publication "Caught Offside", that the 19-year-old Portuguese attacker has attracted the attention of both Premier League clubs. The English representatives are considering taking steps to transfer the player in January.
Gonalves' current contract includes a release clause of €60 million. However, it is claimed that "Chelsea" and "Manchester United" value the player between €45 and €50 million and may submit offers at this amount.
The young winger has appeared in 9 matches across all competitions this season. He scored 3 goals and made 1 assist in these games.
Gonalves' contract with "Sporting" is valid until the summer of 2030. This factor gives the Portuguese club a favorable position in potential transfer negotiations.
According to the "Transfermarkt" portal, the player's current market value is €15 million. This amount is significantly lower than both the release clause included in his contract and the amount the English clubs are reportedly willing to pay.
