Danilo can operate as a central or box-to-box midfielder. He will add drive, physicality, defensive cover, and goals in the middle of the park. He has scored 10 goals in all competitions this season and picked up three assists as well. He could be a complete midfielder for Manchester United next season.

The player is at the peak of his career, and this is the right time for him to take on a new challenge. He will look to prove himself in the Premier League. He will feel that he has unfinished business in English football, and Manchester United could give him the platform to showcase his quality.

The report does not mention how much Manchester United have offered for the 25-year-old midfielder, and it remains to be seen whether they can win the race for his signature.
