Real Madrid defender Eder Militao was offered to Manchester United several years ago.

Militao, who went on to become one of the best center backs in the world before a recent injury, could have been a Red Devil.

The club's former scout Sandro Orlandelli spoke about how the Brazilian was on United's radar.

He told Premier League Brasil: “Militao, for example, was a wonderful opportunity.

“He was finalising his contract with Sao Paulo.

“Then people realise. Because I remember that he was very undervalued by Porto, with his contract coming to an end."
