Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel has already made his feelings about N'Golo Kante clear amid claims Manchester United will look to sign him this summer window. Kante only has 12 months left to run on his contract at Stamford Bridge and the Londoners risk losing him for nothing.
As part of their impending rebuild, key figures in the Old Trafford boardroom are targeting a new centre-back plus one versatile attacking option and, at least, one recruit in central midfield. United were planning to strengthen that area even before Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba gear up to leave.
They are certain to be joined by Jesse Lingard and Spanish veteran, Juan Mata, hinted that he could depart as well when making a gesture to United supporters who made the final day trip to Crystal Palace. Several midfielders have been linked with a switch to Old Trafford.
