For José Mourinho, as well as a new midfielder, the priority in the summer should be the full-back position, as neither Luke Shaw, Ashley Young nor Antonio Valencia appear to be the long-term solutions on either side of defence.

Matteo Darmian might as well already be in Italy somewhere, leaving the Portuguese manager with very little to work with, which is why we’re seeing the Red Devils linked with multiple defenders for the roles.

Alex Sandro has been a recurring theme in Italy, and now we’ve got an (old) new target for the right-back position in Djibril Sidibé.

Le10 Sport were the ones pushing the story on Wednesday evening, claiming the Monaco defender, who can play on either side of the centre-backs, is of ‘strong interest’ to Manchester United.

According to the website, the Special One has already started the process of trying to sign him, letting the player know of his desire to sign him in the summer.

Nothing concrete has been put forward just yet, but Le10 Sport don’t think it would take too much to convince the 25-year-old to move to Old Trafford.

Monaco, on the other hand, might resist a little bit more.
