Man Utd hold key Liam Delap transfer advantage over Chelsea - but hopes of signing Ipswich striker may hinge on Europa League triumph

<p>Per <a href="https://talksport.com/football/3169970/premier-league-live-news-latest-gossip-updates-man-united-arsenal-liverpool/page/1#liveblog-entry-3197687" target="_blank"><em>talkSPORT</em></a>, Ipswich Town's Delap is reportedly <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-utd-disadvantage-liam-delap-transfer-pursuit-bundesliga-giants-join-race-chelsea/blt3ee98a20df363069#cs7f30eef7ef3e9d7b" target="_blank">ready to pick United over Chelsea as his next destination</a> this summer. The former Manchester City player, who has scored 12 Premier League goals in the 2024-25 campaign, is ready to return to the north west.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Delap reportedly had a £30 million ($40m) relegation release clause in his contract, which is now active after the Tractor Boys went down from the top division last month. It is believed that both the Blues and the Red Devils are ready to trigger the clause, as they look to bolster their attack ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The report adds that Delap's decision could be affected by the result of the upcoming Europa League final between United and Tottenham Hotspur, as the English forward is prioritising European football. If Ruben Amorim's side win the title next week and qualify for the Champions League, they will be able to lure Delap to move to Old Trafford.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Amorim's men, who have not won a Premier League game since March 17, will next face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this Friday. </p>
