Man United ready to compete with Arsenal and Tottenham for £35M Rennes star

The reds are ready and set to compete with Arsenal and Tottenham for Rennes teenager Desire Doue this summer, according to reports.

The 18-year-old attacking midfielder made 31 appearances for Rennes in Ligue 1 last season scoring four goals and providing five assists.

He appears to be the latest talent to come off the Rennes production line with the club responsible for producing the likes of Ousmane Dembele and Eduardo Camavinga

He appears to be the latest talent to come off the Rennes production line with the club responsible for producing the likes of Ousmane Dembele and Eduardo Camavinga.

According to Mail Sport the attacking midfielder has been on the radar of some of Europe’s top clubs for over a year, but his performances are now attracting interest from the Premier League.

It’s claimed Paris Saint Germain, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund have also made enquiries about the teenage star.

Doue is attracting interest from the Premier League.
Mail Sport add Rennes are expected to demand around £35m for the France under-23 international, who has two years remaining on his current deal.

The Report claims Doue is viewed as having more potential than Jeremy Doku, who Rennes sold to Manchester City for £56m last summer.

Doue is a key part of Thierry Henry’s France under-23 side and will no doubt play a big role at the Olympics this summer.

It remains unclear who United’s manager will be next season with question marks remaining over the future of Erik ten Hag despite the Dutchman winning the FA Cup on Saturday.

It remains to be seen if who is in charge will have any bearing on whether the Red Devils decide to pursue a deal for Doue or not.
