The Red Devils have preferred Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinex and Victor Lindelof in central defence.
 

"He has to fight for his place, and he has the abilities to be a top-class centre back .He is the best for England and I assume he will be best for us, but he has to prove it," Manchester United's head coach added.

Earlier, various media organisations reported that English club West Ham agreed on a deal of 30 million pounds (38.01 million dollars) for the English defender.
