Newcastle, Norwich threaten Southampton plans for Man Utd fullback Williams

Southampton are unhappy with the loan fee demanded by Manchester United for Brandon Williams.

The Sun says United are understood to be looking for more than £2million to let another club borrow the versatile fullback.

Saints have been keen on the 20-year-old since last summer but see that price as too rich for their blood.

It means a deal is looking increasingly unlikely unless United reduce their demands.

That is despite Williams himself being keen to join as he is keen to play regular games, having started just TWO Premier League games last season.

It is believed he would still want to quit Old Trafford temporarily even if Alex Telles joins Jose Mourinho at Roma.

Norwich and Newcastle have also shown interest in loaning Williams.
