Moreover, <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/aston-villa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"24\" title=\"Aston Villa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aston Villa<\/a> and Galatasaray are in this race as well. However, Chelsea are \u2018most determined\u2019 to finalise the operation.<\/p>\n<p>The 23-year-old moved to Stadio Renato Dall\u2019Ara from Olympique de Marseille last summer and still has a contract until 2029. So, Bologna are in a strong position to demand a big fee if they are forced to sell him, and want around \u00a339m, with the French side having a 10% sell-on clause.<\/p>\n<h2>Battle<\/h2>\n<p>The report state that a return to the Premier League would be a major step forward in the Englishman\u2019s career, and it would boost his chances of securing his place in the England national team. So, he might be open to leaving the Italian side during the offseason.<\/p>\n<p>Rowe is a left-winger by trait but is also comfortable on the opposite side. Furthermore, he can provide cover in the No.10 position if needed. In 41 appearances across all competitions, he has made 11 goal contributions this season.<\/p>\n<p>Man Utd currently have Matheus Cunha as the only option to deploy on the left flank. Moreover, Patrick Dorgu can provide cover in this position if needed, even though he is a left-back by trait.<\/p>\n<p>After qualifying for the Champions League, the Red Devils are keen on adding depth to several areas of the squad.<\/p>\n<p>Rowe is a talented young forward and could be a shrewd acquisition for Man Utd or Chelsea should either club eventually manage to secure his service.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--mvp-post-tags--><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--posts-nav-link--><\/p>\n<div class=\"mvp-org-wrap\" itemprop=\"publisher\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Organization\">\n<div class=\"mvp-org-logo\" itemprop=\"logo\" itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"50\" src=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new-logo.png\"\/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/new-logo.png\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!--mvp-org-logo--><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Football Talk | Premier League News\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><!--mvp-org-wrap-->\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/232722\/chelsea-most-determined-to-sign-man-utd-target-rowe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea are reportedly \u2018most determined\u2019 to sign Manchester United target and Bologna star Jonathan Rowe, as per TEAMtalk.
