Agent of Man Utd target Gaitan blasts Benfica coach Jesus

The agent of Benfica winger Nicolas Gaitan has taken a swipe at coach Jorge Jesus.

Gaitan has been dropped in recent games, with Jesus claiming injuries were taking its toll.

But Jose Ibarren said: "He has no serious injury. He played all the games in the Champions League and has no problem. Gaitán is not playing due to the decision of the coach."

Ibarren also spoke of Manchester United's pursuit of Gaitan.

He added: "Any player would like to play for Manchester United or Real Madrid, but any interested club must make a concrete offer to Benfica."
