DEVASTATING NEWS: it’s been revealed that one of Manchester United star has been told he can leave the club with Sancho also on the way. Erik Ten Hag is eyeing Man Utd swoop for £6.5m-rated “sensation”, it is over for Manchester United star.
The Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, is starting to pay attention to the January transfer window in an effort to bring in some much-needed reinforcements.

As January approaches, the Dutchman has his sights set on a few players in anticipation of a potential move to Manchester.
Information about Man Utd’s move
According to Football Insider, Old Trafford is in serious competition with Chelsea and Manchester City for the teenage French defender Arouna Sangante.
The 21-year-old’s current worth is estimated by Football Transfers to be €7.4 million (£6.5 million). Le Harve would probably ask for more money, but Ten Hag might be able to work out a deal.
Premier League of Rafael Varane.
The rumours surrounding Raphael Varane’s future have made the need for a second centre defender necessary.
According to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Germany, the 30-year-old is supposedly considering a January transfer from Bayern Munich and is considering leaving in the new year.
Given that Varane’s contract doesn’t expire until 2025, Ten Hag would be wise to take advantage of it and utilise the proceeds to sign a new defender.
The former Real Madrid player may call it quits in the coming weeks, but the Dutchman may have discovered Sangante’s ideal successor.
The Arouna Sangante career statistics
Journalist Pete O’Rourke has referred to Sangante as a “sensation,” and he has recently experienced an incredible rise. He was praised as “interesting” by talent scout Jacek Kulig along with a host of other Senegal U23 players.
The 21-year-old made his team debut during the 2020–21 season. He helped Le Havre win the championship and return to Ligue 1 with three goals and two assists.

The rookie demonstrated his worth in the second division by leading the team in accurate passes made per game and ranking in the top five for interceptions and clearances made per game. But he’s reached the next stage of his development in Ligue 1 this season.
Apart from winning 52% of his ground duels and recovering 5.1 balls per game, the centre back has contributed to his team’s five clean sheets in ten league games, which included shutting out AS Monaco and Lyon.
Despite his one clean sheet in eight Premier League games, the 30-year-old’s stats are still superior to his own. Varane recovers four balls per game and wins 50% of his ground battles.
Sangante has shown remarkable leadership qualities despite his youth, and United most certainly need more of that right now. In Ligue 1, he is also the youngest captain.
He is still very much a developing player, but he is becoming a competent defender. He might be able to gain some much-needed exposure to European football and experience playing for one of the best teams in the world by joining United.
