Manchester United are interested in signing Monaco’s Brazilian right back Vanderson according to reports.
The Red Devils had a quiet start to the summer, but have now burst into life having completed the signings of Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro as they look to strengthen their squad in a bid to get back into the Champions League next season.
United are also in talks with Paris Saint Germain over a move for midfielder Manuel Urgarte, whilst they hold an interest in Bayern Munich defender Matthijs de Ligt.
Erik ten Hag’s side could be in the market for a right back with it likely that Aaron Wan-Bissaka will leave the club, and the 26-year-old is now into the final 12 months of his deal.
The former Crystal Palace man has recently been linked with a move to West Ham and if he were to leave United would need to replace him.
Sky Sports have reported that United have identified Monaco’s Vanderson as a possible replacement for Wan-Bissaka.
The Brazil international joined Monaco in 2022 from Brazilian side Gremio and impressed for the Ligue 1 outfit last season scoring three goals in 23 appearances in all competitions.
The 23-year-old is under contract with the French side until 2028, but GIVEMESPORT report he could be available for around £30m.
Vanderson could be a good alternative to Diogo Dalot and Sky Sports add the Brazilian is on a shortlist which also contains Bayer Leverkusen star Jeremie Frimpong.
The Monaco man is known for his attacking prowess and would likely offer a lot more going forward than Wan-Bissaka.
United have also recently been linked with a move Bayern Munich’s Morocco international Noussair Mazraoui.
Ultimately United need to shift Wan-Bissaka before they can sign a new right back, and they will be hoping to do that sooner rather than later with the new season drawing nearer.
