The English Premier League has been a very interesting one in times past, and it seems things won’t be changing soon.
One of the superb qualities of the premier league is it unpredictability – you just can’t predict what will happen in the following week. And right now, when many other leagues already know who’s going to win and teams ending in the top four – no one knows about the EPL yet.
Manchester United presently sits on the sixth position in the premier league table, we look on if they can finish in the top four this season. Although many think United will strengthen their team in the winter transfer window, they failed doing that.
Many top players had been linked with a move to the Old Trafford, and once again Tiemoue Bakayoko is in the limelight.
Bakayoko was heavily linked with a move to Manchester United last January but he eventually stayed with his Ligue 1 side.
According to latest reports, the French international is refusing to sign a new contract and United can finally get his signing done next summer for a fee of around £34 million-£38 million.
It was claimed back in October 2016 by Le10sport (Via SW) that Jose Mourinho loves the 22-year-old defensive midfielder. And this season, Tiemoue has been rock solid for the Ligue 1 leaders.
Portuguese tactician Jose Mourinho has always had a top quality holding midfielder in his system. In his first reign at Chelsea, he had the likes of Makelele and Michael Essien. When he was boss at Inter Milan, he had a quality one in the person of Cambiasso. And when he was still at Real Madrid, he had the likes of the strong Diarra and Khedira. And when he eventually came back for his second reign at Chelsea, he brought back Matic from Benfica.
Mourinho sold Morgan Schneiderlin last month and he needs a top Defensive Midfielder to replace the ex Southampton star – and Bakayoko completely fits the bill.
This season so far in 22 games for Monaco, the 22-year-old has scored two goals and provided one assist.
