Sources: Man United stance on accepting Dan Gore offer revealed
Man United plan to reject all bids for young midfielder Dan Gore in the January transfer window, sources have told Football Insider.
The Red Devils are eager to keep hold of the 19-year-old academy graduate beyond January despite domestic and overseas interest in his signature.
As revealed by Football Insider on Thursday (28 December), Borussia Dortmund plan to submit a ‘big bid’ for the United youngster.
The German giants have enquired about signing Gore in January but are prepared to return in the summer with a fresh bid if rejected.
United’s January transfer budget has been restricted by the club’s current Financial Fair Play limits and the sale of an academy player would represent pure profit on the club’s accounts.
However, senior figures at Old Trafford don’t see Gore’s sale as the fix to their FFP issues and are willing to reject all bids that arrive next month.
Football Insider revealed that there is also interest from multiple EFL clubs wanting to sign Gore on loan for the remainder of the season.
However, the former Burnley academy star is expected to stay put at Old Trafford after impressing coaching staff at Carrington.
Gore made his Premier League debut for the Red Devils in the 3-2 win over Aston Villa on Boxing Day as a late substitute for Christian Eriksen.
The former England Under-18s star has also featured for United in the League Cup against Crystal Palace earlier this season.
