Manchester United have made a move for Crystal Palace recruitment specialist Jamahl Jarrett.

United are set to add Jarrett, who is currently assistant head of academy recruitment at Selhurst Park, to their network of spies.

The Daily Mail says United are ready to appoint Jarrett as a lead southern scout.

David Harrison, who is currently United's head of youth recruitment, has played a lead role in the expected appointment of Jarrett.

Harrison was previously head of European youth scouting with Manchester City before joining rivals United in 2017.
