On that note, here is the latest Manchester United transfer news as on January 8th, 2021
Manchester United lose race for Moises Caicedo
Manchester United have been linked with Ecuadorian wonderkind Moises Caicedo since November, but now it seems that they could lose out on signing the player, as Everton have firmly put themselves in the driving seat for the midfielder's signature.
According to Extra, Caicedo is expected to sign for a new team by next week, with Everton and Major League side Atlanta United emerging as the favourites. Caicedo was reportedly keen on joining Manchester United, but that may not happen now.
The midfielder first caught the attention of Manchester United in November, and a deal looked close to being finalised. However, negotiations between Independiente del Valle and Manchester United have seemingly come to a halt.
Manchester United in pursuit of Kouadio Kone
Manchester United have joined the race for Toulouse youngster Kouadio Kone. The French prodigy has caught the eyes of many of Europe's elite clubs with his performances in France's second division this season.
According to Foot Mercato, Kone is being pursued by Manchester United, AC Milan and Borussia Monchengladbach. Milan have already presented an offer to Toulouse for the French U-19 international' services.
Kone would be a long-term project for Solskjaer's team, but has already shown the physical and technical prowess to be able to adapt to the Premier League.
West Ham looking to bring in Jesse Lingard this month
Manchester United are ready to cash in on Jesse Lingard this month, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer having completely lost faith in the former England international. Lingard has been the subject of interest for a host of Premier League sides, and now West Ham have thrown their name into the mix.
According to The Star, David Moyes is keen to reunite with Lingard by bringing him to West Ham. However, the Hammers face stiff competition for the Englishman's signature with Sheffield United and Leicester City, who are also said to be keen on acquiring the midfielder's services.
Jesse Lingard has not played for Manchester United this season, and a change of scenery could benefit both parties, as the Englishman has fallen way down the pecking order in the Old Trafford club's midfield.
