On Tuesday, we reported a story from Spain which claimed Manchester United’s Donny van de Beek was a reported target for Inter.
With a bit behind in midfield and the Dutch midfielder clearly out of action under Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford, it made sense, but they may not be the only ones interested.
Indeed, Jeunes Footeux de France published an article on Tuesday claiming that Leicester City, who finally claimed their first win of the season in a 4-0 victory against Nottingham Forest on Monday night, could be interested in January.
The site explains that the Foxes are ‘paying attention to the situation’ of the Manchester United man, ‘mainly to compensate for a possible exit of Youri Tielemans’, whose contract at King Power Stadium expires at the end of the season.
The transfer window in January may be Leicester City’s last chance to make money on a sale, but to let it go they would need a replacement.
This is where the Manchester United midfielder comes into play and “a loan with a repurchase option of 15 million euros is being studied”.
While battling at Old Trafford, Van de Beek says he “does not give up on imposing himself in the Premier League”, and perhaps a club like Leicester could “allow him to find more time to play”.
