Manchester United express interest in signing defender on free-agent deal – Contract expiring in summer

Paris Saint-Germain’s Thomas Meunier is attracting interest from Italy and England, claims today’s edition of Le Parisien.

Juventus and Inter Milan get a mention and the latter have already tried getting closer to the Belgium international’s entourage.

According to the report, three major Premier League clubs have expressed interest in the right-back and this includes Manchester United.

The 28-year-old is a fan of English football and is not insensitive to interest from the United Kingdom. He’s also particularly fond of the Red Devils, getting into trouble at PSG last year after arriving back late following a trip to watch a match.

His contract with the Ligue 1 winners expires after this season and he’s so far not been offered an extension. The newspaper claims Meunier’s priority is to continue in Paris, but there’s only been informal talks so far.

Meunier is courted by the likes of Juve, Antonio Conte’s side and Manchester United, with the insinuation being a summer move as a free agent. Even though his desire is to stay at PSG, if the French champions don’t offer him a new contract, the defender will be forced to leave.

The player’s idea is to get one last big contract and also continue at an ambitious European club.

Whether it’s at PSG, United or any other side remains to be seen.
