    DID YOU KNOW?

    Kana-Biyik will follow the exact transfer path as France legend Paul Pogba, who left Le Havre to join United in 2009 as a highly-rated 16-year-old midfielder.

  • WHAT NEXT FOR KANA-BIYIK?

    The report has also suggested that Kana-Biyik will be immediately sent out on loan to fellow INEOS-owned club FC Lausanne-Sport, as they are keen to see the striker develop his skill set before he returns to join the first-team dynamics at Old Trafford.
