  • It has been reported that Manchester United is interested in Roma's midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo
  • Zaniolo has appeared in 64 matches with Roma and has scored 13 times

The improved chemistry of Manchester United in recent months can be linked to the team’s rejuvenated lineup. Despite their success, the club is still looking to add the perfect complement to the duo. It has been reported that Ole Gunnar Soslkjaer’s lineup can be further improved by adding Serie A standout Nicolo Zaniolo.

With star player Paul Pogba gaining newfound confidence with his new star partner Bruno Fernandes, the Red Devils have improved in terms of their cohesiveness as a team. The developing players in the team have seen an increase in their roles with Solskjaer training these talents to reach their maximum potential. Young stars such as Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood have been the recipients of bigger roles this season with the way they’ve stepped up on the field.

Per Red Devil Armada, Manchester United is reportedly interested in the services of Roma’s star midfielder Zaniolo. The 21-year-old has shown his potential on the field with the way he dictates the pace of the matches he plays in. With excellent dribbling skills that he utilizes to get around defenders, Zaniolo serves as an asset for any team he suits up for. In 64 matches in Roma, he’s tallied 13 goals and five assists. To add to these, he also has a pass success percentage of 82.4% from the field to go along with 1.1 key passes per game.

The duo of Pogba and Fernandes will benefit much from a midfielder like Zaniolo who can facilitate the offense. The star tandem has found a new groove as of late and has shown glimpses of how Manchester United can dominate a match.

With the additional scoring threat of Fernandes, Pogba has also been noticeably more motivated to lead the team to success. Couple these high-profile players with developing stars such as Zaniolo and Manchester United can have a strong lineup for years to come.

It will be interesting to see how Manchester United adjusts its lineup for the coming seasons with the expectations high for the historic club. It would be pivotal for Solskjaer if they can land a young star like Zaniolo to develop further in the future.
