Borussia Dortmund joins Manchester United in race for Louis Page

Borussia Dortmund has entered the race to sign Leicester City midfielder Louis Page, intensifying the competition for the 18-year-old talent. Manchester United, who reportedly came close to securing a deal for the player last summer, remains a primary contender and believes they are in the pole position for his signature.

Page’s profile rose significantly following a standout performance in Leicester’s 4-3 victory over Stockport County, where he provided two assists. The English U19 international has attracted interest from numerous high-profile clubs, including Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea.

Leicester City holds a contract with Page until June 2029. While Manchester United previously had a £12 million offer rejected, reports suggest the club may need to offer closer to £18 million to initiate formal negotiations. Page has been compared to Jude Bellingham due to his technical ability and maturity on the ball.
