Manchester United and Manchester City both are rumoured to be planning to sign Brighton winger Mitoma in January. I would like to see Manchester United signing him instead because they would make use of a productive player like him more now. They are in a really desperate condition now.
Brighton wants to extend his contract. Undoubtedly, Mitoma will want to leave Brighton if Manchester teams are interested in him, but it is hard to predict which team he will choose. There is a very high level of competition at Manchester City. He will have to compete with star players like Phil Foden and Jack Grealish, but I think he has a slightly better chance of being in the starting 11 at Manchester United. No doubt it will be a difficult decision for him if this transfer happens.
