Man Utd Want to Sign ‘Special’ Teen Sensation
Manchester United could be set to make a move for Sunderland youngster Chris Rigg, GIVEMESPORT sources have revealed – with the Red Devils closely monitoring the youngster as they look to bolster their youth ranks over the coming months under INEOS’ ownership. Sir Jim Ratcliffe completed his minority stake in the club back in February, and instantly got to work in the summer with transfer gurus Dan Ashworth, Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada all joining the club at boardroom level to change their recruitment landscape.
Spending almost £200million this summer, it hasn’t been an ideal start to the campaign for the Old Trafford side who sit 11th in the Premier League table – but with INEOS in the hunt for the long run, they are now looking to bring younger, high potential talents into their side – which has seen Rigg linked as the Sunderland man continues to impress at Championship level for Regis Le Bris’ table-topping side.
