Burnley are set to demand up to £30 million for midfielder Sander Berge, with Manchester United showing strong interest in the Norwegian international. United has already contacted Berge’s representatives, exploring a potential transfer. Despite relegation from the Premier League, Burnley are determined not to sell Berge cheaply, valuing the 26-year-old at £30 million.

United are reportedly willing to offer £20 million for Berge, who was signed from Sheffield United for £12 million a year ago. Burnley, under new manager Scott Parker after Vincent Kompany’s move to Bayern Munich, is holding out for an additional £10 million. The club is under no financial pressure to sell due to a £100 million parachute payment. Berge, friends with Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard, has emerged as a viable target for United after the club declined to meet PSG’s £51 million valuation for Manuel Ugarte.

The Norwegian midfielder is keen on a move to Old Trafford, potentially earning £100,000 a week. With 66 Premier League appearances and 46 caps for Norway, Berge is viewed as an experienced player. He has scored three goals and provided four assists in his Premier League career.
