Desperation and transfer markets seem hand-stitched for each other.
The needs of a manager, particularly one with Jose Mourinho’s ambition and eagerness for the Premier League title in the coming season, combined with the kind of financial firepower Manchester United are capable of delivering, can result in a session where almost no player is truly unattainable.
Currently, multiple outlets seem to be on the trend that Mourinho is adamant at fixing the defensive flanks at Old Trafford, and is said to be on the hunt for long-term replacements for veterans Young and Valencia.
The left side, in particular, is a mountain that the Portuguese gaffer has been seeking to capture for quite a while now, and a recent development may just provide the perfect opportunity.

All in all, the price tag only makes sense in the context that the 27-year-old is penned to the Italian giants till 2020, and the rest of the price seems like a result of hype and performance-based inflation.
There is also the fact that Juventus themselves, have stated that the player’s future at the club is only 10% confirmed.
