Manchester United have been linked with a move for a new defender this in the summer transfer window. A few are set to leave, while one could come in. Some reports are suggesting Axel Disasi is a target for the Reds.
Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez both need better back-up options than Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof. Erik ten Hag is expected to do something about that but a lot depends on how much he has to spend in the transfer window.
According to Football Insider, United have emerged as favourites to sign France defender Axel Disasi from AS Monaco in the summer.
The 24-year-old is a potential target for The Reds but claims suggest United have sent scouts to watch Disasi at Monaco this season and have been impressed with the performances of the France international.
This is not the first time Disasi has been linked with a move to Old Trafford, so even though the source may be dodgy, it’s one worth keeping an eye on.
Football Insider claims United are favourites in a race that consists of Man City and Chelsea.
Disasi as a back-up replacement for Victor Lindelof?
The report adds that Disasi could be a replacement for Victor Lindelof rather than Harry Maguire?
I was add that both defenders are at risk of losing their place in the squad.
Maguire is likely to attract a bigger fee than the Sweden international.
