Manchester United are expected to be big players in the summer transfer market as the club begin life under Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who recently bought a minority stake in the Red Devils and will assume control of footballing operations.

With United known to be looking around for new players, several have already been linked to a future move to Old Trafford. Among them are Ligue 1 duo Jonathan David and Khéphren Thuram, whom ESPN reported last week are on the English club's radar.

A former Red Devil believes both players could make an impact at Man United, with Lille's David a long-established goal scorer in the French top flight and Thuram turning heads in Nice's midfield. 

“Regarding Jonathan David and Khéphren Thuram, I do believe they’re ready," Louis Saha told Betfred

"I follow Khéphren as he plays next door to me and he has the power to play for any club in England, that’s for sure and it wouldn’t be a surprise to me at all if a move to England happens for him.

"For anyone who follows Ligue 1, they will understand that it’s the same for Jonathan David because he’s a really strong striker, he’s got a lot of quality and he’s a good player.

"If they move to the Premier League, both these players will need time to adapt but they’re certainly good players."
