Bayer Leverkusen are interested in a surprise loan move for Manchester United youngster Brandon Williams.

The full-back enjoyed a breakthrough season at Old Trafford last time out, appearing 36 times in all competitions for the Red Devils.

Williams, 20, has seen his minutes dwindle this term, however, following the summer arrival of Alex Telles from Porto.

But despite his lack of playing time, the youngster isn't short of interest.

Southampton have been linked with making a January loan move, with Ralph Hasenhuttl said to be a big fan.

And the Telegraph reports German giants Bayer Leverkusen are set to enter the race.
