It is understood that United are in contact with Roma and plan to submit a bid of around \u00a342.7million (\u20ac50m). Real Madrid withdrew from the race for Kone after seeing their \u00a334.1m (\u20ac40m) offer rejected.<\/p>\n

Saudi side Al-Ahli and Chelsea are also interested and Kone’s fee could rise to \u00a351.2m (\u20ac60m) if a bidding war ensues.<\/p>\n

Baleba’s camp have reportedly got in touch with United once again to suss out a move to Old Trafford. Fabrizio Romano<\/a> claims that the 22-year-old’s representatives have made contact and is keen to work under Carrick.<\/p>\n

The Brighton midfielder was pushing for a move last year and sees United as his dream destination. The Seagulls were demanding \u00a3100m for his services, which stalled any potential deal.<\/p>\n

However, Baleba’s transfer fee has fallen to around \u00a370m and could be an option for United after this significant drop in value.<\/p>\n
