Man Utd still keen on Louis Page after deadline miss
7 Sep
Summary
- Manchester United remain interested in Louis Page.
- A summer deal failed, but United is optimistic.
- Page's transfer could exceed £10 million.
Manchester United's pursuit of Leicester City's Louis Page continues, even after a missed opportunity to sign the midfielder during the summer transfer window's deadline day. Despite the previous negotiations failing to yield an agreement, sources suggest United remains highly interested and believes it is well-positioned to secure the England youth international's signature, fending off competition from Arsenal.
United management appears unconcerned by the current situation, as their initial plan involved loaning Page back to Leicester for the entire season, regardless of when a deal was finalized. The transfer of the 18-year-old, who featured in 18 Championship games last season and has started Leicester's recent League One matches, is anticipated to cost upwards of £10 million.
This interest aligns with Manchester United's strategy of acquiring promising young English talent, following similar acquisitions like Ayden Heaven and Tynan Thompson.
