MANCHESTER UNITED are monitoring the transfer situation around Florian Wirtz, reports suggest.
The German wonderkid has captured the attention of Europe’s elite footballing institutions including Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.
However, the Bayer Leverkusen star is also being tracked by the Red Devils, according to Sky Sports in Germany.
The report suggests the club’s scouting team have cast an eye on the 20-year-old.
There is said to have been no contact with the player’s family or any sort of offer made.
The report suggests Wirtz is top of Bayern’s transfer wish list.
However, they do not currently possess the financial muscle to complete a move after already splashing out on Harry Kane this season.
Wirtz has been estimated at a cool price of £104million.
He has scored six goals and added ten assists already this season mainly from attacking midfield.
Man Utd are reportedly eyeing four signings in January.

Erik ten Hag is said to be looking for a new No8 and striker, both positions which Wirtz could fulfil.
A right-sided centre-back and defensive midfielder are also reported to be on Ten Hag’s winter shopping list.
