Man Utd boss Moyes made personal check on Atletico Madrid's Koke

Manchester United boss David Moyes was in Spain last night to see Atletico Madrid against Porto.

The Daily Mail says Moyes was present at the Vicente Calderon on Wednesday evening and it is understood that he was taking a closer look at Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke during the Spanish side's 2-0 victory over FC Porto.

Moyes is determined to add creativity and guile to United's midfield in January and Koke, a vital part of the Atletico team that has emerged as a genuine threat to Barcelona and Real Madrid at the top of La Liga, has been identified as a leading target.

Koke only signed a new five-year contract with Atletico in September but it is understood that the deal contains a buyout clause, which is speculated to be around £30million.
