Youssouf Fofana's Transfer Market Interest Grows

Youssouf Fofana, AS Monaco's midfielder, is at the center of a transfer tussle, with AC Milan and Manchester United both interested in securing his services. AC Milan has reportedly agreed on personal terms with Fofana but has yet to meet Monaco's asking price, which has increased to around £30 million. Meanwhile, Manchester United, having made several signings this summer, are also eyeing Fofana as a potential alternative to their primary target, Manuel Ugarte. Fofana has made it clear he prefers a move to Manchester United over AC Milan, despite the Rossoneri's ongoing interest. Monaco's CEO confirmed Fofana is not included in their preparations, indicating a mutual agreement for his exit. The situation remains fluid as both clubs navigate negotiations and the transfer window deadline approaches.
