Manchester United would have to wait beyond this season to sign their long-term target Keprin Diatta.
The Red Devils have been watching the Senegalese youngster over the past couple of months and Jose Mourinho is believed to have been impressed enough and wants to bring him next summer.
However, they have been warned that the youngster is not ready for a step up to the Premier League just yet.
Diatta has been impressing in the Norwegian league for Sarpsborg and he has even admitted that he dreams of playing for the Red Devils. When he was told about Manchester United scouting him in their match against Odd, he said:
“I didn’t know they scouted me today, but to join them would be a dream come true.
I think I’m good enough, but I play for Sarpsborg and love this club.
“We’ll see what happens in the future.”
People close to the club have also been talking, with one individual saying:
“The objective for now is to play.
“I don’t think he’s ready for a big European club. You need to go through the steps methodically.”
