Manchester United are busy preparing for the start of the new Premier League season. They have handed boss Erik ten Hag a new deal this summer after they won the FA Cup last term by beating rivals Manchester City in the final at Wembley.
The Red Devils have the chance to bring in some more players over the coming weeks. Here is a look at some of the latest news and rumours coming out of the club…
Midfielder linked
According to a report by German news outlet Fussball News, United are keen on a move for Guidars FC midfielder Sekou Kone. Salzburg, Crystal Palace and Wolves.
The 18-year-old is being tipped for a bright future in the game and could land a move to Europe soon from Africa. He caught the eye at the Under-17 World Cup playing for Mali.
Ten Hag could see him as someone who is capable of breaking into his team down the line.
Target joins Aston Villa
United-linked Jaden Philogene has returned to Aston Villa from Hull City. They sold him to the Tigers last September and he has now gone back to Villa Park after scoring 12 goals in the last campaign.
TEAMtalk claimed in July that he was on the Red Devils’ radar. However, they will now have to look elsewhere for targets in his position.
Philogene has said: “It feels amazing, it’s like I’m back at home.
“Unai (Emery) spoke to me face-to-face and we had a very good conversation about my playing time.
“He said I did well when I was here in pre-season last year and that I’m going to get chances this time. It also depends on me and how I play. It’s the latest chapter in my Villa journey and hopefully I can play my best, get game time and do it in front of the fans.
