Premier League giants Manchester United and Chelsea are set to battle out for the services of one of the hottest players in the Premier League.

Manchester United have made Crystal Palace star Michael Olise their priority signing for this summer.

New Co-owner Jim Ratcliffe is looking to move quickly in a bid to blow Chelsea out of the water for the 21-year-old winger.

Olise’s current contract at Selhurst Park includes a release clause of £60million, and the Red Devils, as well as Chelsea, are reportedly willing to activate it this summer.
