AS Monaco defender Vanderson admits to being flattered to be linked to Manchester United this summer.

The 22-year-old was one of many players monitored by the Old Trafford club this summer.

United chose not to move for Vanderson as both right backs Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Diogo Dalot stayed at the club.

While Vanderson did not end up leaving Monaco, the right-back who can also play centrally could be on the move in the future.

In an interview with Diario AS, he discussed his circumstances: "It's great to hear Barcelona and United 'love' you.

"It's fantastic to know your name is being mentioned by the big clubs. But, now I'm focused only on Monaco."
