It is now trending news that Manchester United is poised to secure the signature of a 23-year-old standout from Chelsea as Erik Ten Hag is really pushing the move.

Manchester United is anticipated to undergo a period of transition with the introduction of Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the club’s new minority owner.

The British billionaire has reached an agreement to invest around £1.3 million for a 25% stake in the Red Devils.

Despite the Premier League’s pending approval of the sale, Ratcliffe, alongside his associate Sir Dave Brailsford, is currently conducting an assessment of the team.

According to The Sun, Ratcliffe is keen on investing in British players and has already extended a contract offer to Scott McTominay, aiming to fend off recent interest from West Ham and Bayern Munich.

The Express has identified several homegrown players that Manchester United might pursue in the near future, with Conor Gallagher being a notable addition to their list.

As the 23-year-old approaches the final 18 months of his contract at Stamford Bridge, speculation has arisen regarding his future at Chelsea.

The English midfielder has featured in 20 out of Chelsea’s 21 Premier League matches this season, establishing himself as one of the club’s standout performers.

Despite his contributions, Chelsea is reportedly open to receiving offers for players whose contracts are nearing expiration.

Blues manager Mauricio Pochettino addressed Gallagher’s future last month, especially as Tottenham Hotspur showed considerable interest in the midfielder. Pochettino stated:

“I am speaking beforehand; this situation is a matter between the club and the player. It’s challenging for any coach to discuss; it’s a decision made by the club and the player.

I’m focused on coaching the team and making the best decisions for optimal performance. Currently, he’s performing well, proving to be fantastic for the team. His playing time is based on merit.”
