Ed,

I saw a rumour about us being interested in Ismael Bennacer of Milan, do you know if there is anything to this?

{Ed002's Note - Ismael Bennacer (DM/CM) Scouts from Manchester City, Napoli and Manchester United watched the player although interest of Manchester City has gone with a different player signing. And with Labotka extending his contract Napoli no longer need to add another DM player. With Bakayoko departing his loan early Milan are trying to persuade the player to extend his contract. For Manchester United he would be a potential Matic replacement but not at the top of the list.}

Are you able to share who IS at the top of the list for Matic’s replacement please, ed002?

Of all of the midfield names we’ve been linked with, they all seem Pogba replacements, rather than Matic.

{Ed002's Note - Done to death.}

Wonder if United don’t get FDJ, they might try their luck for Declan Rice?!

Though perhaps he might be more of a target next year….

Would hazard a guess we don’t have the money for Rice that West Ham would want.

Rice isn't for sale, the interested clubs will revisit next year but considering he's under contract to 2025 he still is not going to be cheap.

Rice should be the player to build a team around, the leader, the Captain
For the next ten years.
