Boubakary Soumare pursuit
Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea have been handed a major boost in their bid to sign £50million-rated Boubakary Soumare from Lille.
Soumare’s manager Christophe Galtier has admitted that there is “tension” between the defensive midfielder and the club, which is why he was left out of Sunday’s crunch clash against Marseille.
Express Sport understand that his impressive performances have led to intense interest from a raft of different clubs, including United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and AC Milan.
“There is a situation at the club that I do not comment on,” Galtier told L’Equipe. “In seasons, there can be tension between a player and his club. We’ll settle this internally and find a solution.
