Manchester United’s prime summer target to sign new deal

Manchester United have made Southampton’s young fullback Nathaniel Clyne their top transfer priority in the summer but it seems the Saints won’t buckle under pressure. Instead, Southampton are fighting hard to keep hold of their prized asset for at least one more season. 

The 24-year-old has only a year remaining on his current deal at St Mary’s and there are indications that he will not commit his future to the club. Southampton executive director Les Reed has said he is confident the England international will sign a new contract ahead of interest from Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool this summer.
