Manchester United scouts are said to be watching Santos striker Marcos Leonardo.

The 20-year-old has been very impressive since breaking through with the Brazilian club's first team.

Per Calciomercato, Santos are ready to sell the forward for around £13 million.

Lazio, Roma and Nottingham Forest are all interested, with Roma said to be favourites at present.

However, United's pull would be on another level, if they were to firm up their interest.

What is unclear is whether Untied will still want a forward after they officially announce Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta.
