James McAtee could be at the center of one of the most controversial movements in the market if he ultimately switches sides in Manchester. According to reports from Mirror, the young attacking midfielder, just 22 years old, is being closely monitored by Manchester United, who see in him a great opportunity to strengthen their squad with an emerging talent that has not been able to establish himself at Manchester City.

Despite being considered one of the most promising prospects from the 'citizen' academy, McAtee has not had the expected playing time under Pep Guardiola's guidance. Fierce competition in the midfield of the English champions has relegated the player to a secondary role, a situation that could be pushing him to consider a change of scenery. In this context, United aims to take advantage of his situation to entice the player with a proposal that guarantees him playing minutes and a leading role.

The Red Devils will face competition

The interest from Old Trafford is not the only one. Teams like Bayer Leverkusen and Nottingham Forest have also recently been linked with the English player, although the chance to stay in the Premier League and do so with a club of great history like United could weigh more.

A departure from City before the Club World Cup is not ruled out, and the executives would not pose obstacles if a convincing offer arrives. What nobody expected is that their neighbor and eternal rival would be the first to enter the bidding war.
