The 22-year-old midfielder has long been interested in Manchester United, since the head coach of the Red Devils, Jose Mourinho, is a big fan of Dendonker's talent.

Now the sports director of Anderlecht Hermann van Holsbeek called the price for which the Belgians can part with their young talent.

"We want to keep Leander, but if there is a club that will be ready to pay 25-35 million euros, this may not work for us".

"He has twice demonstrated his ability to perform at the top level in duels against Manchester United".

"Fortunately, the Champions League begins only in September. Otherwise, we would definitely have already lost Leander ".

"We would like him to spend another year in Anderlecht, and we could work together on his transfer next summer," - said Van Holsbeek.

In the season that ended Dendonker won 40 games for Anderlecht in the national championship, scoring 5 goals.
