Man United keen to sign £30m Brazil international faster than “Mbappe”

With his “obscene pace,” Manchester United is eager to recruit right-back Vanderson, a £30 million Brazil international, during the summer transfer window.

As to Sky Sports, the Red Devils have identified the Monaco star as a potential substitute for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, and this is one of their priorities.

Man United may need to cover Wan-Bissaka’s contract, which is coming to an end, since he has been linked to leaving in recent weeks.

Erik ten Hag’s team would benefit greatly from the addition of Vanderson, a 23-year-old with a reputation for having “obscene pace,” should Wan-Bissaka go.

‘Vanderson is a right-back who stands just shy of six foot, which is quite unique for a full back,’ top football scout Antonio Mango posted on social media.

‘[He possesses] obscene pace and acceleration, athleticism, dynamism, elite technical skills and breathtaking energy.

‘Vanderson is very much your modern-day full-back who likes to get forwards are much as possible and be involved offensively.

‘He’s been used as a full-back, wing-back and right winger with AS Monaco but no matter where he’s positioned it doesn’t effect much his game.

‘Vanderson is renowned for his offensive prowess, power and physicality. But it’s his pace that is most noticeable, the Brazilian whooshes down the flank and is almost fearless in the way he constantly breaks through to the opponent’s byline.

He said: ‘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.’

‘Vanderson causes a significant problem for opponents capable of beating them with and without the ball. With the ball, his technique is excellent and his ability to dribble at top speed is phenomenal.’

Vanderson is valued at £30m, Give Me Sport have reported, but it should be noted Monaco are under no pressure to sell at all and he may be sold for more.
