EXCLUSIVE BREAKING NEWS! Daily Mail reporter Chris Wheeler has uncovered that Manchester United starlet, Manu's contract extension talks have been met with an unprecedented challenge. Chelsea will be quick to move in on the 19-year-old English talent if he chooses to look for another job, in a bid to get ahead of the game.
Menu still has two and a half years left on his contract with Manchester United, but his rapid growth over the past year has attracted the attention of many giants. Although he has played 17 games for United this season, starting 13 of them, showing amazing strength and potential, the contract renewal talks have stalled due to certain differences.
Today, Menu's value in the transfer market has soared to 55 million euros, which undoubtedly exacerbates the fact that he has become the meat and potatoes of the transfer market. As the top giants of the Premier League, Chelsea have always emphasized the introduction and development of young players, and their interest in Menu naturally speaks for itself.
For Manchester United, Menu's contract extension has become a pressing dilemma. They are eager to keep the young midfield core and inject fresh blood into the team. But if the two sides can't reach an agreement on a new contract, United may have to mentally prepare for losing Menu.
As for Chelsea, they have already shown great enthusiasm for young players in the transfer market. If Menu does leave United, they will certainly go all out for the English starlet to bring new energy and competitiveness to the team's midfield.
