Man United show interest in former Liverpool player as club eye defensive reinforcements

Manchester United are keen to strengthen their defense further even after completing the signing of Leny Yoro from Lille.

The club have been linked with moves for Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite and Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt.

Manager Erik ten Hag is reshuffling his defense ahead of next season and more changes are expected to be made now and between the start of the season.

Man United are considering a move for former Liveprool defender Neco Williams, according to HITC.

The Red Devils are monitoring the player along with some of the biggest clubs in Europe.

The versatile full-back has attracted attention from West Ham United, AC Milan, Bayer Leverkusen, Tottenham and Newcastle.

United are looking to sign an attacking player as a full-back to provide the manager an extra option in the wide areas.

Former Liverpool defender Neco Williams is being eyed by Man United.

The Red Devils have been paired with Bayer Leverkusen player Jeremie Frimpong as well as Bayern Munich full-back Noussair Mazraoui.

Williams is liked for his ability to play as a right-back as well as a left-back.

Since leaving Liverpool to join Nottingham Forest, he has been a huge hit at the City Ground.

The defender left United’s Premier League rivals Liverpool because of lack of opportunities at Anfield and the need to play more first team football.

Williams can be a good option for United as he has the attacking quality that is needed for a full-back in ten Hag’s system.

First and foremost, the club have plans to sign a new midfielder and only after doing that, they will focus on other positions.
