Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants Callum Hudson-Odoi, Declan Rice and Aaron Wan-Bissaka at Man Utd as he targets English rebuild

MANCHESTER UNITED boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is reportedly lining up bids for three of English football’s top youngsters.
claims Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi, West Ham midfielder Declan Rice and Crystal Palace right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka are all in Solskjaer’s sights as he looks to buy British this summer.
United are believed to be in the market for a new winger, with former player Wilfried Zaha under scrutiny as out-of-contract Juan Mata prepares to join Barcelona.
But at 18 years old, and with just a year left on his Chelsea contract, Hudson-Odoi has the potential to be a far better signing.
The newly-capped England international is upset he has not been given enough playing time at Stamford Bridge.
And Hudson-Odoi could turn his back on Maurizio Sarri’s side for a controversial switch to their Premier League rivals.
Meanwhile, fellow Three Lions debutant Rice, 20, has become one of the Premier League’s leading anchormen following a meteoric rise under Manuel Pellegrini.
United look set to lose Ander Herrera on a free transfer to Paris Saint-Germain, with Paul Pogba’s future also up in the air.
Rice is already a commanding presence in the centre of the park and could be just the man needed to dictate United’s play from deep.
Solskjaer is also keen to bring a new right-back to Old Trafford, with exiled captain Antonio Valencia heading for the exit.

And Wan-Bissaka, 21, would represent another fine long-term signing.
The ace is yet to be capped by Gareth Southgate but is a regular for Aidy Boothroyd’s Under-21s.
Palace could be willing to talk figures, although additional interest from Manchester City is sure to see Wan-Bissaka’s asking price rise sharply.
