Manchester United are monitoring highly-rated Bayer Leverkusen defender Jeremie Frimpong.

The Red Devils have reportedly sent scouts to watch Frimpong in action in the Bundesliga.

The ex-Celtic man has been in very good form so far this season, even earning a call-up to the initial Holland squad for the World Cup.

According to Fabrizio Romano and Florian Plettenberg, United are serious about the right-back.

They are happy with Diogo Dalot, but know that he needs long-term competition.

The current no.2 is Aaron Wan-Bissaka, but he is not suitable for the style manager Erik ten Hag wants to implement.

A January move is possible, but a summer transfer appears the most likely outcome.
