Manchester United are tracking Brøndby midfield ace Nicolai Vallys.

According to Ekstra Bladet (via Sport Witness), Manchester United are one of three English clubs watching the 27-year-old Denmark international, who has six goals for Brøndby so far this season. It is believed that the Reds have already sent scouts to watch him play.

We haven’t heard of him before and it may be a case of the midfielder becoming a late bloomer, but it would be a huge step up for Vallys to move to the Premier League.

The other clubs reportedly interested in the midfielder include Aston Villa, Southampton and Bundesliga side Wolfsburg.

Vallys could join two fellow Danes at Old Trafford if he was to join the club in the future, with Christian Eriksen and Rasmus Hojlund in the squad. He made his debut for the Denmark national team in a Euro 2024 qualifier against San Marino in September.
