And according to reports, the Red Devils are considering a move for Stuttgart centre-back Finn Jeltsch, who is also wanted by Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
The highly rated 20‑year‑old has quickly become one of Europe’s most promising young defenders, with United particularly impressed by his technical quality and composure in possession.
Jeltsch is under contract at Stuttgart until 2030 and is expected to command a fee in excess of £45 million, a significant outlay for a player of his age, but one United believe could be a long-term investment.

According to The Telegraph, the Midlands side have ‘indicated a willingness' to put forward a £65 million package to Chelsea for the Senegal striker.
There is growing confidence on both sides that an agreement can be reached in the coming days, which would make the 25‑year‑old Villa’s new record signing following Johan Manzambi’s arrival earlier this summer.
Unai Emery is eager to reunite with the former Villarreal forward as he plans for life after Ollie Watkins, who now appears increasingly likely to complete a move to Saudi Arabia.
Spurs eye another winger in Amine Gouiri
Algeria forward Amine Gouiri – Photo via IMAGO / ZUMA Press WireTottenham Hotspur have pushed their summer spending beyond £300 million with the arrival of Savio, and he may not be the only winger through the door before next week.
Reports in Italy claim Roberto De Zerbi is attempting to hijack Napoli’s move for Marseille wide man Amine Gouiri as he looks to add further attacking depth.
The Algeria international, 26, is understood to be a well‑liked option within the north Londoners' recruitment team, though the exact fee required remains unclear.
Gouiri is valued at around £24 million by Transfermarkt and is under contract until 2029, potentially making him a relatively affordable target at this late stage of the window.
