United has reportedly made contact with Leicester City attacker, James Maddison, over a Ā£60million summer move.
This news came as a result of the Club's intention to rebuild the United tradition which has gone to exile.
Maddison, 22, was exciting during the last Premier league campaign and his alarming performance has caught the eye of the Red Devils following the resuscitation of the poor run of form at the just concluded league season.
The England U21 player representative have been met over a possible transfer of the prospect.
The Daily Record says United are in talks with Maddison as they seek to rebuild for a season without Champions League football.
It is claimed Maddison, who Leicester value at Ā£60m, has reservations about joining Manchester United due to the absence of Champions League football and the amount of playing time he would be offered.
Man United have made contact with Maddisonās representatives as Real Madrid renew their efforts to sign French World Cup winner Paul Pogba.
Pogba is said to be keen on a move to the Bernabeu to work under the legendary Zinedine Zidane but United CEO Ed Woodward hopes to retain the midfielder.
Speaking last month, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted he only wanted to sign players who have the right āwork ethicā and desire to play for Manchester United.
He said: āWeāve touched upon it [before]. Weāve tried to educate our players and our kids to be proper people. In my years, the best players have always been the best people.
āYou have to have that value system ā do you say that? A certain kind of attitude about you to make a Manchester United player.
āYou have got to have qualities and our fans want to see exciting players. We want to get up from our seats. You see defenders who defend, like thatās their life, thatās the most important thing.
āWhen we go to press with Jesse [Lingard] and Marcus [Rashford], in the games against Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool and Chelsea, when we start these games, our fans clap a striker making a tackle.
āThatās the way itās been and in our culture. You have to have that work ethic and weāre scouting the market trying to find the right ones."
