Chelsea and Man Utd in transfer battle as £30m Declan Rice alternative makes Premier League call

Chelsea and Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Ibrahima Sangare this summer. The midfielder is said to be convinced that he'll be playing Premier League football next season.

Both clubs are looking to strengthen their respective midfields in the window as they undergo new eras at Stamford Bridge and Old Trafford. The Blues in particular are likely to have a very busy window, with plenty of exits and incomings expected.

In terms of the midfield, football.london understands that the long-term futures of Jorginho and N'Golo Kante remain undecided. Both are out of contract next summer and there have been no talks to extend their respective stays at Stamford Bridge. It's why if a sizeable offer arrives for either player, Chelsea will not dismiss it. There is room to negotiate.
