Manchester United are interested in a £25m summer deal for Leicester City midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, according to a report.

Manchester United are reportedly keeping tabs on Leicester City's Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall ahead of a potential move for the midfielder during this summer's transfer window.

The 25-year-old has been in strong form for the Foxes during the 2023-24 campaign, scoring 10 goals and registering 13 assists in 41 appearances in all competitions.

Dewsbury-Hall has a contract at the King Power Stadium until June 2027, but he could allegedly leave this summer if Leicester are unable to secure promotion to the Premier League.

The Foxes are currently second in the Championship table, now only one point clear of third-placed Ipswich Town, with the team, who had been runaway leaders at the top of the division earlier this season, facing the prospect of dropping into the playoff positions.

According to 90min, Dewsbury-Hall is likely to move on if promotion cannot be secured this term, and Man United have expressed an interest in his signature.

The report claims that Brighton & Hove Albion failed with a £20m move for the midfielder in January, with Leicester placing a £45m valuation on him.

Brighton are said to be preparing to reignite their interest this summer, but Man United have also been in touch with the Englishman's camp to discuss a potential move.

Should Leicester fail to secure promotion this season, it is believed that Dewsbury-Hall could be allowed to leave the club for around £25m during the summer market.

The midfielder came through the youth system at his current club, progressing to the first team in 2017, and he has featured at senior level for the Foxes on 121 occasions, scoring 15 goals and registering 18 assists.

Dewsbury-Hall has a host of experience of playing in the Premier League, turning out on 59 occasions in the competition, while he has also featured in the Europa League and Europa Conference League.

Man United's midfield department is expected to undergo changes this summer, with Casemiro and Christian Eriksen both being linked with moves away from the club.

Sofyan Amrabat's loan move from Fiorentina is not expected to be made permanent, meanwhile, with the Morocco international struggling to impress since his arrival last summer.

As a result, two new central midfielders could potentially arrive ahead of the 2024-25 campaign, with Wolverhampton Wanderers' Joao Gomes also said to be admired, while the Red Devils are believed to have a long-standing interest in Benfica's Joao Neves.
