United to sign powerful South American defender
English Premier League side Manchester United are reported to have set their sight on French Ligue 1 outfit Bordeaux central defender Pablo and are keen to have his signature ahead of the winter transfer window which reopens in coming weeks.
The Red Devils are desperate for new and quality defenders with manager Jose Mourinho making efforts to achieve that since last summer’s transfer window but that is still yet to happen.
With an understanding reported to be reached between the club, the Portuguese boss and the board, there are high chances that United will go out for more options in the winter window.
However, the Red Devils can boast of a good option with Pablo who is tipped to be one of the best in his position in the French Ligue 1.
Fox Sports Brazil hints that the 27-year-old star will be a good deal for the Jose Mourinho team as he will not only cost less than other players but will also deliver great quality at the Old Trafford.
United have got to solve their defensive crisis having conceded as many as 26 goals in 16 Premier League games which is one of the worst starts they have had in their club history.
