Godin not for sale

Cape Town - Defender Diego Godin is being priced out of a move by Atletico Madrid according to the latest reports from Spain.

Atletico Madrid's Diego Godin is reportedly being monitored by Manchester United with a view to a January bid according to reports.

The Daily Star report that the 28-year-old Uruguay international is not for sale and it will take a £28.5 million, the player's buyout clause, bid for the right to talk to the player.

Godin is a regular starter for Diego Simeone's side and was a central figure in Atleti's La Liga triumph last season.

Manchester United were considering an offer lower than the player's buyout clause but those plans have been dashed according to the latest reports.

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
