What’s the word?
Having established himself as one of the most exciting young Englishmen in the Premier League this season, playing a pivotal role in Burnley’s survival bid whilst claiming his first two caps for the Three Lions, Keane’s future has been the subject of much debateÂahead of the summer – and particularly since Sky Sports claimed last month that he’ll leave Turf Moor at the end of the season.
The Daily Mail, however, seem pretty convinced Keane’s next destination will be the club he left permanently two years ago for just £2million in Manchester United, where he’d risen through the youth ranks and made five appearances at senior level before a series of loan spells. It’s claimed his return will be a £25million deal, with United emerging as the clear favourites for his signature.
Do United need another centre-back?
Deciding on a long-term partner for Eric Bailly is a must for Jose Mourinho ahead of next season and aged just 24, Keane and the Ivory Coast international could provide an incredibly solid setup alongside each other for the many seasons to come, although a lack of experience at top level could be an issue at first.
But more than simply bringing another defender in, Keane represents an attempt to return to United’s traditional philosophy of nurturing their academy products towards first team level. Sure, it may be a slightly different route to the Class of ’92, but having a former youth player in the starting line-up is always welcomed at Old Trafford and will show doubters Mourinho is prepared to embrace the club’s historic values.
