Manchester United have jumped into the battle for RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano.

AC Milan have made a serious move for Upamecano this week.

Waldeckische Landeszeitung reports Milan are joined by Bayern Munich, United, Chelsea and Arsenal in pursuit of the Frenchman, who has a €60m release clause built into his current deal.

His contract has less than a year to run.

RBL chief Oliver Mintzlaff said recently to Kicker: "I expect he will play with us next season.

"We've had some good talks to find a solution, so we avoid him leaving us for free next year.

"Timo Werner stayed, and I expect that we will do our homework properly so that Dayot will stay."
