MAN-UTD TO ANNNOUNCE NEW DEFENDER
JOSE said he will have to strengthen his options in defence this summer
United are said to be close to securing a £44 million deal for Juventus left-back Alex Sandro, with reports in Italy claiming that an official announcement could be made shortly after the FA Cup final this weekend.
But Le10 Sport claims that Sidibe is also one of United’s priorities and the Premier League runners-up will begin talks with Monaco ‘in the coming hours’.
The report claims that Sidibe’s future could even be decided before the start of France’s World Cup campaign.
Monaco, however, are keen to hold out for a high transfer fee having received £52m from Manchester City for Benjamin Mendy last summer.
Sidibe was signed from Lille for £13m in 2016 and Monaco are looking to make a profit on him.
The 25-year-old, who has made France’s World Cup squad, has been Monaco’s first-choice right-back but he is also capable of covering on the opposite flank.
