AS Monaco chief Paul Mitchell is being discussed inside Manchester United.

Interim manager Ralf Rangnick, who is set to move upstairs to become a consultant at the end of the season, is also sold on the idea of Mitchell joining.

But according to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, other chiefs at Old Trafford are unsure about him coming in.

Mitchell is currently at Ligue 1 side Monaco where he has been acting as sporting director.

However, this report states that he is open to leaving the club in the summer.
