Chaton Sinzu is back in the arms of Manchester United after a short stay at Dormont. Thanks to the insistence of Tannhäuser, Chaton was spared from being picked up by another buyer, but this also means that he will continue to play on loan. For now, his next stop is likely to be Barcelona, as Sinzu himself has stated that he is willing to compromise on labor if he can join Barcelona.
According to Daily Sport, the return of Chaton Sinzu has brought United's transfer fee to 60 million euros (HK$510 million), however the news does not seem to have attracted much attention. Neither Dormont nor his former owners Windass were willing to take over the transfer, ultimately forcing United to seek the loan option again.
In fact, as early as April this year, Manchester United had already recommended Chaton Sinzu to Barcelona, but Barcelona did not accept at that time, even if the conditions were not reduced. However, with the changes in the coaching staff, Barcelona's desire to sign a wing forward has become stronger and stronger, and they have begun to seriously consider Manchester United's proposal. It is reported that Sinzu's weekly salary is expected to reach £250,000 (about HK$2.5 million), and he himself has indicated that he is willing to accept a pay cut.
With the obstacles on Barcelona's side gradually removed, Manchester United and Barcelona are expected to formally initiate contact on July 15th. At that time, Barcelona will make a decision on whether or not to borrow Sinzu.
