Manchester United in line for cash windfall should Michael Keane leave Burnley

Manchester United are in line for a hefty cash windfall should England international Michael Keane leave Burnley.

The Old Trafford club reluctantly allowed the 23-year-old leave for Turf Moor in 2014 and Keane has gone on to establish himself as one of this country's most promising central defenders – underlined by his recent international call-up.

Chelsea and Leicester are both tracking the defender and could launch moves for Keane in January.
