A host of European giants are eyeing Borussia Dortmund defender Marc Bartra.

Marca says Manchester United have expressed interest in the former Barcelona stopper, but aren't alone.

United are one of a number of clubs who have been put on alert over his availability as the German club agree to sell.

Manchester City and Juventus as well as United are said to have shown an interest in the 27-year-old, but with City set to sign Aymeric Laporte United could have a better chance of landing the centre back.
