Diario AS: Manchester United winning the race for La Liga star amid Chelsea interest

Manchester United are winning the race for Saul Niguez, though Chelsea have come a long way in the battle in the last hours, according to Diario AS (via Sport Witness). Atletico Madrid midfielder has been heavily linked with the move to Old Trafford for the summer transfer window, with the Blues later also joined the race for the 26-year-old's transfer. The La Liga side's boss Diego Simeone has already revealed that Niguez could possibly leave the club this summer. The player is eager to make a move to a Premier League team.
