Erik Ten Hag hijacking summer move after opening Manchester United talks for powerhouse

It has again been claimed that Manchester United have made moves to sign Monaco star Youssef Fofana this summer.

After an impressive season in France – Fofana is now player that Manchester United are very much interested in signing as Erik Ten Hag wants to add some more depth to that midfield that he has.

Fofana has talked up the chances of a move away from Monaco this summer but despite the reports that Man United are very keen on the star – it seemed that a move to AC Milan was on the cards.

But reports from his homeland claim United are now ready to hijack the move. That would see the Red Devils muscle in on a Milan deal for the second time this summer, having already pinched Joshua Zirkzee from their clutches.

The Sun have claimed that Man United have even opened talks with the defender about a potential move to the club – but a potential deal is a long way off from being completed.

Cesc Fabregas recently claimed that he believes that Youssouf Fofana would thrive in the Premier League:

‘I know him, I played with him,’ Fabregas recently said on the BBC’s Planet Premier League podcast when asked about Fofana and whether he could be heading to the English top-flight.

‘Funnily enough I never heard about Man United, I heard that he was going to AC Milan because [Paulo] Fonseca probably is going to go there from France and they know each other, so let’s see where he goes.

‘But he’s a very dynamic and strong player, good on the ball, a modern type of player, aggressive, can jump, he’s box to box. I really like Fofana and I think he fits very well with the Premier League style.’

Fofana could be a solid signing for Manchester United, but we would be very shocked if he joined the Red Devils over Milan as talks are quite advanced.
