Rumour Has It: Kante targeted by Man Utd, De Jong to Man City

The
Red
Devils
have
not
been
able
to
find
balance
with
the
likes
of
Paul
Pogba,
Nemanja
Matic,
Scott
McTominay
and
Fred.

As
a
result,
Erik
ten
Hag’s
rebuild
at
United
could
mean
a
big-name
signing
to
rejuvenate
their
play
in
the
centre
of
the
pitch.

KANTE
TARGETED
BY

New

Manchester
United
boss

Erik
ten
Hag
wants

N’Golo
Kante
to
form
the
basis
of
his
rebuild
at
Old
Trafford,
according
to
the
Mirror.

The
31-year-old
has
one
year
left
on
his
contract
at
Chelsea
and
Ten
Hag
is
reportedly
confident
in
Kante’s
sustained
ability
to
perform
at
the
highest
level.

Kante
is
believed
to
be
an
attainable
target
if
Todd
Boehly’s
takeover
at
Stamford
Bridge
is
rubber-stamped,
giving
Thomas
Tuchel
a
sizeable
transfer
budget
to
work
with.

United
are
no
guarantee
to
even
play
in
the
Europa
League,
sitting
three
points
ahead
of
West
Ham,
who
have
a
game
in
hand.
