Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly pushing to sign Lamine Camara this summer. The midfielder is also a target for Crystal Palace, who have had a bid rejected for the Senegal star.
According to a report by Pete O’Rourke, Chelsea and Manchester United are looking to sign a midfielder before the deadline day, and are searching for the best option. They have spotted Camara as the ideal player, and are considering a move.
Thanks for the submission!
Reports suggest Crystal Palace are leading the chase for the AS Monaco star, as they look to sign a possible long-term replacement for Adam Wharton. The 22-year-old was a target for Newcastle United earlier this summer, before they signed his teammate Aladji Bamba.
Manchester United are looking for a deep-lying playmaker who can fill the void left by Casemiro. They have signed Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans already this summer, but are looking to add more faces to the midfield.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are preparing for the possible exit of Enzo Fernandez, who has been linked with Manchester City. The Argentine star has been slapped with a £120 million price tag, but the Cityzens are unwilling to match the asking price.
Chelsea and Manchester United urged to sign Arsenal star
Rio Ferdinand has backed Manchester United to push for Myles Lewis-Skelly. He believes that the Arsenal star is ideal for the Red Devils and Chelsea, and they should be making a move and said:
“If I’m Manchester United right now, I say press the green button and buy him, take him right now. What a player, a top player. He was a massive part of the team when he was brought in towards the end of the season. He contributed to Arsenal winning the league, he was brilliant and came in and produced.”
“If he’s on the market and he’s (available at) a good price, you have to take him. The good price I’m saying is £60 million or £70 million. If that’s the case, get the chequebook out, slap it down and sign him. No questions asked, I would take him. He’s young, a huge talent, can play in two positions and I think mentally he’s made of the right stuff.”
The Arsenal star was reportedly offered to the two clubs earlier this week, but they have rebuffed the chance. The Gunners were looking for £45 million for the teenager, who was looking to leave the club because of their new signing Bruno Guimaraes.
