Man United handed major transfer boost in their pursuit of £40m-rated frenchman after Tottenham Hotspur decision

Manchester United have received a major boost in their pursuit of the services of Jean-Clair Todibo with Tottenham taking a backseat.

According to a reports, Manchester United are keen on reinforcing their defence ahead of next season.

It is going to be their priority heading into the summer transfer window, and Nice’s Jean-Clair Todibo is a top target for the Red Devils. They have received a major boost as Tottenham Hotspur are no longer a part of the race.

Things might not have worked for Todibo at Barcelona, but he seems to have revived himself at Nice.
