Manchester United 'interested in signing Aurelien Tchouameni'

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni and could make a move before this summer's transfer window closes for business.

The 21-year-old has scored four times and provided four assists in 50 appearances for his current club since arriving from Bordeaux in January 2020.

Man United are believed to be keen to strengthen their midfield for the 2021-22 campaign, and according to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, Tchouameni is a genuine target for the English giants.

The Red Devils are said to be in talks with the Frenchman's agency and could make an offer for his services over the next couple of weeks.

Tchouameni, who has already made five appearances for his Ligue 1 club during the 2021-22 season, is also believed to be admired by Chelsea.

The defensive midfielder still has three years left to run on his contract at Stade Louis II, which puts Monaco in a strong position when it comes to any potential negotiations before the end of the summer window.
