Chelsea meddle in United's deal for Ward-Prowse

James Ward-Prowse is one of the most talented midfielders in the Premier League. The player, who has had an excellent season at Southampton, is being linked with some of the biggest clubs in the competition. Manchester United and Chelsea are his main candidates.

But in the case of the Red Devils the interest is not new. A month ago 'The Sun' claimed that the player was an express request from Erik ten Hag for his sporting project. It also added that the cost of the transfer could go up to 90 million euros.

'Sky Sports' reported that Chelsea have joined the bidding for the Englishman. It should be remembered that the Blues have already solved their problems in the offices, and the midfielder is liked by Thomas Tuchel.

However, getting the player out of Southampton is not going to be easy for any of the interested parties. Ward-Prowse is contracted to the Saints until 2026 and renewed his contract with the club last year.
