Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is ready to deal in Jonny Evans.
The veteran defender penned a contract for preseason to help fill out squad numbers during their US tour.
But such has been his impact that Evans could now be offered terms to the end of the season.
The Sun says Evans is in such good shape he could be part of the squad for the new campaign.
With Eric Bailly and Harry Maguire both potentially leaving, Evans could be signed as squad cover.
