Manchester United show interest in Leicester's Ben Nelson amid transfer window

Manchester United has expressed interest in Leicester City defender Ben Nelson, who has reportedly requested a transfer. Leicester is asking £10 million for the 22-year-old, which has deterred other clubs including Torino and Borussia Monchengladbach, who had bids rejected. Nelson, standing at 6ft 5ins, played 27 matches last season and has six caps for the England U20 team. While Manchester United's interest appears credible, their willingness to meet Leicester's valuation remains unclear as they seek smarter recruitment strategies.
