The 18-year-old has already gained valuable senior experience despite his age and has attracted significant interest from several top-flight clubs.

Page, who was named EFL Apprentice of the Year last season, has established himself as one of the brightest prospects to emerge from Leicester's academy. The England Under-20 international has made 21 senior appearances for the Foxes and continues to attract attention following his rapid rise into the first team.

According to a report by the BBC, Manchester United are working on a deal to sign Page, with discussions understood to be ongoing between the clubs. Arsenal and Aston Villa have also shown strong interest in the midfielder in recent weeks, but United are now looking to secure his services.

Page turned 18 last month and has already featured prominently in Leicester's senior setup. He made five starts for the club last season as Leicester were relegated from the Championship and most recently appeared in their Carabao Cup victory over Northampton Town on Saturday.

Leicester handed Page his first professional contract in September 2025, highlighting the club's belief in his potential. Because Page is under a professional contract with Leicester, United would need to reach an agreement with the League One club over a transfer fee if they are to complete the move.
