MANCHESTER UNITED fans have been left fuming at the reported asking price the club have set for Fred.
The Brazilian has been linked with an exit from Old Trafford this summer with a move to Fulham.
Manchester United reportedly want £20million for Fred
Fulham boss Marco Silva is keen on the midfielder
The midfielder featured 57 times for the Red Devils last season, helping them to a Carabao Cup trophy and a Champions League spot.
Although he was spotted talking to manager Marco Silva after the win against the London side at the end of the season.
And supporters were left fuming with the apparent asking price.
The Brazilian has one year left to run on his contract at Man United and this could be one of the last chances the club have to cash in on him.
According to the Telegraph, Fulham are willing to pay for him, but not at the £20million asking price, £32m less than what the club paid for him in 2018.
Man United fans however can not believe the price that has been set for the 30-year-old.
One angry fan tweeted: “£20m?! And they won’t pay it?! Eh?! I’m quite happy for Fred to go but I thought he’d be going for £30m absolute minimum.”
A second commented: “50m or nothing.”
A third wrote: “This valuation seems disrespectful to a player like Fred, he’s a current Brazil international and he’s actually a decent player when used correctly.
“United are the worst when it comes to selling. Regardless of him being in the last year of his contract, should be 35m at least.”
A fourth joked: “Would they sell Palinha for 20mil?? Come on!”
A fifth said: “Fred is a Brazilian international, why are we struggling to get 20m for him?? lol.”
While a sixth added: “£20m is a bargain, what?.”
While Fred may not be one of the stars at Manchester United, he has played a big role this season.
He played 2,275 minutes in all competitions, the 13th most in the United squad.
His most recent minutes came in the FA Cup final defeat to Manchester City.
After the game, Fred admitted that he is still not sure over his future, but is happy at the club.
He said: “I still don’t know, I have to talk with my family, I still have one year left in my contract here.
“Now it’s holidays’ time and a good opportunity to rest. I’ll talk to my staff, to the club and see what is everyone’s decision.
“I do have to talk with [Erik] Ten Hag as well, he’s the manager and the conversation has to involve everyone.
“We have to see how next season will plan out. I want to be important, I want to help the team, so we’ll see.
“But I’ve always been and still am very happy at Manchester United.
“Of course, I always want to be playing, to be helping my team and gladly I started and I think we played well.”
