Manchester United defender Timothy Fosu-Mensah may be doing his part to help the club sign a new centre-back.

The versatile defensive man went on social media and congratulated Dayot Upamecano on his first international cap.

The Frenchman played for his national team in a 1-0 win over Sweden in the Nations League on Saturday.

Upamecano posted a picture of himself during the game and mentioned his delight at getting his first cap.

Fosu-Mensah liked the picture and commented with a clapping hands emoji.

United have been linked to the signature of the young French centre-back.
