Former Chelsea boss Ruud Gullit says Manchester United should move for RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano.

Gullit believes Upamecano could transform United in the same way Virgil van Dijk transformed Liverpool.

He told beIN Sports: “[What] Was the first thing [Jurgen] Klopp did with Liverpool? He bought a good defence. He bought a goalkeeper and good defenders because everything starts there.

“And I think Man United should start there as well. I saw something amazing with Leipzig and Dayot Upamecano.

“He was outstanding [against Atletico Madrid]. He can play football, he's hard in the tackle. Defence is what I would start if I was Man Utd."
