Monaco demand more than €60m for Chelsea and Manchester United target Lamine Camara

Monaco demand more than €60m for Chelsea and Manchester United target Lamine Camara What if Lamine Camara (22) was to continue his spell at AS Monaco for a third season? That, at any rate, is a possibility that is gaining increasing traction in Monaco. Courted by numerous English clubs, including Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and Crystal Palace – the latter’s €35m bid reportedly having been rejected by the Monaco board, who wish to keep him – the Senegalese midfielder does not seem in any hurry to leave France and would therefore not force his way out. So much so that, according to reports in Nice-Matin , even a €60m bid to try and prise him away from the Red and Whites would not be considered sufficient at present. A key member of the ASM squad, Camara is expected once again to play a vital role under Felipe Luis. Having made 31 appearances across all competitions last season (three goals, four assists), the Diouloulou-born player took the opportunity to demonstrate the full extent of his talent; his future could well mirror that of Maghnes Akliouche (24), who has been retained for another year to allow his market value to continue to rise.
