Leicester City have reportedly made contact with Manchester United regarding potential loans ahead of the January transfer window, according to MailOnline.
United will have a host of young talent on the fingers of Ruben Amorim’s squad, and a temporary move away could be what they need to help with their development. Sending youngsters to Van Nistelrooy, a manager they clearly trust after his recent spell as a coach at Old Trafford, could be a smart move for all parties involved.
The Foxes are eyeing a loan move
It’s unclear if Leicester have identified any players from United who could be viable options, but they will clearly be hoping that Van Nistelrooy’s relationship with the Manchester club could be a benefit for them in their pursuit.
The likes of Antony, Victor Lindelof, and Christian Eriksen have all struggled for game time this season, but the United trio could be on hefty wages that Leicester might not be able to afford. A young starlet on the fringes of first-team football is Toby Collyer, but there will be an argument as to whether he’s ready to step up for Leicester in a relegation battle at his age.
The Foxes will only be able to sign one player from United on loan for the second half of the campaign, so they will have to choose wisely if the Red Devils come back and offer a list of potential players who are available.
