  • 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.
