Manchester United - Man Utd
Man United have been heavily interested in young talent Louis Page in this summer transfer window alongside Arsenal. However, either side failed to strike a deal with the Leicester City wonderkid. But now United are trying complete some homework before the January winter transfer window. The Red Devils are attempting to fix a pre-agreement with Page, as per latest transfer news.
Man United working to agree a move for Louis Page
As reported by GIVEMESPORT, Man United are just a few steps away from reaching a pre-agreement with Louis Page. The Premier League side are working to strike a deal with the English wonderkid. If Leicester City and Page accept a deal, the 18-year-old will be ready for a Old Trafford move.
In the later stage of this summer transfer window, the Red Devils had started talks to seal a deal for Louis Page. There was a disagreement regarding the transfer fee at that time and a potential deal collapsed. On that exact night, the youngster featured for the Foxes against Plymouth Argyle in League One. He bagged an assist in that game.
As reported by MEN, discussions are still in continuation between the parties for Louis Page. The quoted transfer fee is £10m + £2.5m add-ons for the Leicester City youngster. Man United hierarchy and Leicester City officials are still trying to find a solution regarding the payment terms of the £12.5m fee. However, there is a feeling that they will reach an agreement very soon. In spite of Arsenal’s interest, Page would be Old Trafford bound very soon. Until that, the 18-year-old can continue to play in League One.

Louis Page believes Man United’s ideology
The exciting young talent is inclined towards Man United. He has his family in Manchester and is convinced with the project presented to him by the Premier League club. Page has found United’s road of gradual entry into the first team quite interesting. There are high chances that all the parties will reach a transfer agreement for the midfielder before January window. After that, he would be kept at the King Power Stadium for the rest of the season.
His current manager is quite impressed with him. He said, “Louis is a really fantastic young player. I haven’t actually spoke on Louis with Jason Wilcox because he probably knows what I’d say to him and tell him to go away.” He continued, “Until something comes in that is really brilliant for the club and player and everyone is happy, then Louis stays and he’s in the squad. I’m really enjoying working with him.”
Man United’s short and crisp summer transfer window
The Red Devils had signed Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans and Karl Darlow early in the transfer window. In the last week of the window, they signed Carlos Baleba from Brighton. The midfielder is an important addition to the squad. Moreover, Tynan Thompson came from Tottenham as an academy recruit.
United didn’t start the season in the best possible manner. A shocking loss against Hull City and a strong win against Ipswich Town has exposed one thing about United. Michael Carrick needs a quick left back who would support his brand of football.
