Brendan Rodgers recently confirmed that star midfielder James Maddison is negotiating a new deal at Leicester City. But Manchester United still want him.

Manchester United do not need James Maddison due to the burgeoning relationship and quality of Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba. In fact, the Red Devils became a force close to being as dangerous a team as Liverpool or Manchester city, almost overnight. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side will challenge for the title next season, mark my words.

Fernandes is an incredible midfielder who revolutionised United upon arrival: thanks to adept skill, knowledge of the game, swagger, confidence, vision and technical ability. The complete modern midfielder, in my opinion. A pleasure to watch in the Premier League. Hence why, along with French World Cup winner Pogba, it appears that the Fox would be surplus to requirements at Old Trafford.

Manchester United wait on Leicester City star

After only scoring two goals in four games in all competitions, Brendan Rodgers admitted to media that the club will be targeting attacking talent during this summer transfer window. Which was a greatly appreciated intention for the Leicester City faithful.

Now, if the King Power outfit decide to or are forced to sell forward-thinking players such as James Maddison, then the search for new goal contributors would become compulsory.
