Manchester United and Chelsea supporting punters here inside the Football Transfer Tavern cannot believe the news they are reading in Metro (via the Daily Telegraph) – with the publication suggesting that the Red Devils are plotting a shock move to sign Chelsea starlet Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
This news has caused an intense debate here in the Tavern with all the Chelsea and United fans facing off against one another!
The 19-year-old midfielder has found himself ousted from the first-team this season, with Mourinho failing to give the central midfielder many opportunities to impress.
