Manchester United are making a late push to sign another midfielder before the summer transfer deadline slams shut today.
The summer transfer window will close at 11PM BST, leaving United with only a few precious hours to get their remaining business over the line.
With time rapidly running out, INEOS must move quickly if they want to finalise their squad before the deadline.
According to The Athletic, United are weighing up how to proceed with Leicester City over Louis Page.
The 18-year-old is regarded as one of the most exciting young midfielders in English football.
Arsenal are also keen to sign Page, but United currently hold the advantage in this transfer race.
The teenager signed professional terms with Leicester in 2025, meaning United would need to negotiate a transfer fee with the League One club to prise him away.
United have already strengthened their midfield significantly by bringing in three new players this summer.
Andrey Santos, Youri Tielemans and Carlos Baleba have joined United.
There is no doubt that Page would be an exciting addition to the midfield department.
The teenage sensation broke into the senior Leicester team last season and made 21 appearances.
He is primarily a defensive midfielder but could also operate in a box-to-box number eight role.
His ability to carry the ball through midfield is one of his biggest strengths, while his eye for line-breaking passes has also caught the attention of top clubs.
INEOS would need to move at lightning speed if they want to get a deal for Page over the line before the deadline.
Leicester are in a strong negotiating position and would demand a premium to part with one of their brightest young talents.
