Manchester United have increased their offer for Lecce wideman Patrick Dorgu according to several outlets in Italy, having had their initial bid for the versatile Denmark international turned down earlier in the transfer window.
Dorgu is a player who has been linked with a move away from Lecce for several months of the 2024-25 season already, with a queue of Serie A clubs including Napoli and Juventus linked with a move for him in the summer.
Manchester United increase Dorgu offer
However, Manchester United are keen to get a deal done in January, and recently had a €27m offer turned down for the 20-year-old, who made his international debut at senior level earlier in the season.
Reports earlier in the week suggest that Lecce will listen to offers in the region of €35m-€40m for Dorgu.
According to reports from Calciomercato.com and transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, United have now increased their offer beyond the €30m mark, but it remains to be seen whether that bid is enough to appease those in Lecce.
