Swiss international midfielder Granit Xhaka is a shock target for Premier League champions Man Utd, with Sir Alex Ferguson reportedly impressed with Xhaka's performances for Basel during their matches with United in the Champions League this year.

  • Chelsea ready to pay €75m for Eduardo Camavinga
  • Chelsea planning move for Strasbourg striker Joaquin Panichelli

  • According to reports from Switzerland, Sir Alex Ferguson has been seriously considering a 4 million GBP offer for the Serbia-born midfielder, who has been with Basel since the age of 10.



    Xhaka made his debut for Switzerland against England over six months ago, and has since become a first team regular for his country.



    United are expected to make an offer for the 19 year old this month, and hope to conclude a deal for Xhaka during the summer.
