Atletico Madrid joined Man Utd in the race to sign 22-year-old Ligue 1 midfielder

Atletico Madrid have reportedly joined Man Utd in the race to sign Marseille midfielder Boubacar Kamara who is expected to leave club ahead of the 2022/23 season.

The 22-year-old’s current deal with his French giants will expire in the summer and he is widely expected to depart from Stade Velodrome in search of pastures new.

Manchester United were heavily linked with securing the services of Kamara during the January transfer window, and expected to renew interest in the summer.

According to Goal, Atletico are now firmly favourites to win the race for his signature as Diego Simeone wants to lure youngster at Wandametropolitano.

Southampton, Tottenham and Bayern Munich are also believed to be interested in his services.
