Manchester United are reviving their interest for Real Madrid fullback Fabio Coentrao.

The Mirror says United are ready to renew their interest in Coentrao.

Former boss David Moyes was close to sealing a shock season-long loan for the Portuguese international in the summer of 2013.

But a paperwork snag scuppered the deal at the eleventh hour leaving Coentrao to remain as Marcelo's back up at the Bernabeu.
