French midfielder Boubacar Kamara has enjoyed a great start to his Aston Villa career following a summer switch from Marseille as a free agent.
Manchester United were linked with signing the midfielder previously, but it sounds like they passed on the idea to prioritise Barcelona star Frenkie de Jong.
The Red Devils are still trying to lure De Jong to Old Trafford but time is running out.
Now, Kamara is working wonders at Villa, who have produced a video of his best bits from Saturday’s win over Everton.
United fans were impressed by what they had seen from Kamara.
Boubacar Kamara and João Palhinha are two players that Manchester United should have been looking at to fix their midfield problem. They’re not the flashiest but they win the ball back, protect the defense, and make the right decisions. Ultimately not high profile enough for Utd.

Like I don't think this is even a case of money, Fabian Ruiz is potentially going for 25m and Boubacar Kamara was free, United's scouting structure (and potentially Ten Hag's suggestions) just reek

Man United be like:
This Boubacar Kamara fella is pretty good isn't he?
What's that? Hundreds of people who watch Ligue 1 and thousands who took one look at his numbers thought he'd do well in the PL?
What's that? This DM was on a free? And he's 23?Oops

Onana, Kamara, Palhinha. 3 players Utd *could’ve* targeted this window. All ended up in the PL regardless. All capable of what Utd are in dire need of. Proved it last weekend (Palhinha & Kamara) and so far this weekend (Kamara and Onana).
United’s loss as usual.

Another missed opportunity to strengthen by United?
