Man Utd locked in talks for Leicester midfielder Page
Manchester United remain in talks to sign highly-rated Leicester youngster Louis Page in a deal that could be worth over £10m.
Manchester United was unable to secure Leicester City midfielder Louis Page on transfer deadline day. The club had been attempting to bolster defense after concerns about Michael Carrick's backline. Interests in other players, such as Rayan Ait-Nouri from Manchester City, also did not progress. Ait-Nouri, initially a target for a loan with a buy clause, was not sold as City insisted on a permanent deal.
Leicester wanted significantly more than £10 million for the 18-year-old, who has already made 25 appearances for his current club.
