Paper Round: Manchester United make contact over £100m Harry Maguire and Ante Rebic swoop
United make enquiry for Maguire
Manchester United have made their move for Leicester City
defender Harry Maguire. The 25-year-old expects to be a United player
before the start of the season - and when Leicester City play United on
10 August. The player is rated at £65m and Jose Mourinho wants to add a
ball-playing central defender following the exit of Daley Blind.
United make contact over Ante Rebic
Manchester United won’t stop at Maguire, and have also made contact with Eintracht Frankfurt
for their Croatian forward Ante Rebic. The 24-year-old World Cup
finalist impressed in Russia, though scored only one. His ability to
play across the front three and in midfield is useful for Jose Mourinho,
who wants a right-sided attacker. He may cost around £44m, having only
joined Eintracht Frankfurt for £1.6m this summer.
Chelsea battle Roma for Leon Bailey
Chelsea are looking to add to Jorginho as they rebuild their squad under new manager Maurizio Sarri. They are interested in Leon Bailey, Bayer Leverkusen’s 20-year-old Jamaican winger. His agent and father said that Roma were interested a couple of years ago and might be making their interest known again through intermediaries. Now Willian looks set to stay at Stamford Bridge following Malcom’s transfer to Barcelona, Chelsea are weighing up if they still need to bid for Bailey.
Chelsea also want Milinkovic-Savic
Leon Bailey isn’t the only player that Chelsea have their eye on. They also want to buy Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, who played for Serbia at the World Cup. He impressed in Russia and has been linked to both Manchester United and Real Madrid already. The 23-year-old is seen as a potential playmaking replacement for Eden Hazard, though Maurizio Sarri is outwardly confident of retaining Hazard, Thibaut Courtois and Willian.
