[SPORT NEWS]Man United working hard on defender deal: Player could be interested in move this month

Jose Mourinho is keen to plug his defensive problems.

A left-back is on their radar, with Celtic’s £10million-rated star Kieran Tierney being monitored.

Tottenham’s Danny Rose has also been mooted as a target, and reports emerged yesterday suggesting Luke Shaw could be sold, albeit in the summer.

But according to Italian news outlet Tuttomercatoweb, a move for the 22-year-old is in the pipeline.

It is thought Mendy could be tempted with a move to the Premier League.

Mendy only joined Monaco from French rivals Marseille last summer and has clocked up 14 appearances this term.
United have also been chasing Mendy’s team-mate Tiemoue Bakayo.

However, it is thought he could extend his stay at Monaco.
