Meanwhile, the club are closing in on a deal for Inter my Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana, with the 27-year-old shot-stopper expected to move to Old Trafford before United’s tour of the United States gets underway next week.

Ten Hag also has his sights set on a new striker, with Atalanta forward Rasmus Hojlund earmarked as the perfect addition.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealed that Ten Hag had given his seal of approval for the club to sign 25-year-old Disasi, who is also on Newcastle United’s radar.

Although United are thought to be further along the line than Newcastle, having reportedly been in talks with Disasi “for weeks”.

“Newcastle approached player side this week, expected to make contact with Monaco,” Romano added.

“Ten Hag approved Disasi — talks for weeks on player side but still waiting for approach with Monaco.”

The France international enjoyed a solid campaign for Monaco last term and displayed a potent threat in front of goal, registering six goals and four assists across 49 appearances.

While he was described as “dominant and “complete by football talent scout Jacek Kulig.

Providing some extra detail on United’s interest in Disasi, Romano told GiveMeSport that the defender “would be really excited to join United”.

“I will keep the name of Axel Disasi in the list. They spoke to the player’s side and the player would be really excited to join Manchester United. Disasi is a player they like,” he said
