Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United ‘monitoring’ Sunderland duo in £110m fight | OneFootball

Sunderland are braced for heavy summer interest in midfielders Noah Sadiki and Enzo Le Fée, with a potential £110m fight as elite Premier League clubs circle.

According to TEAMtalk, Chelsea lead the chase for Sadiki, with Manchester United also showing firm interest. The 21-year-old DR Congo international joined from Union Saint-Gilloise for around £15m last summer and has impressed in his debut Premier League campaign.

Chelsea are said to be the most active, having held fresh talks with his representatives last week as they explore a move. He is valued at about £45m, though a bid near £60m may be needed to test Sunderland’s resolve, which would be a club-record sale. Arsenal are tracking him, with Tottenham Hotspur and Everton also monitoring.

Le Fée is likewise attracting attention after a standout season. Champions League-chasing clubs, including Liverpool, are monitoring the 26-year-old’s situation. He has four goals and six assists in 31 appearances and has impressed even when used out of position.

Any move for Le Fée would likely require in excess of £50m. He joined permanently last summer after an initial loan, Sunderland paying around £20m to AS Roma, and he signed a contract to 2029.

Sunderland are keen to protect their position and are considering improved terms for key players, with Sadiki and Le Fée central to long-term plans.
