Man Utd boss Mourinho turns to Atletico Madrid defender Lucas Hernandez

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is eyeing off another of Atletico Madrid's young stars.

Already linked with Jan Oblak, Antoine Griezmann and Yannick Carrasco, United are now seeking information on Atletico defender Lucas Hernandez.

The young centre-half is regarded highly inside Spanish football and has been linked with brother Theo in a double transfer to Barcelona.

Don Balon says Mourinho is also keen as he searches for a new centre-half signing.

With his brother expected to move on this summer, Lucas could find it the right time to do the same.

After a difficult few months involving the police, the defender, it is suggested, would welcome some respite with a move abroad.
