Manchester United are among the clubs monitoring the situation of Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Hugo Larsson, according to Sky Germany.
The Red Devils will face fierce competition from Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig for the 20-year-old Swedish international, who is valued at around €50 million by his club.
Man United want to bolster their midfield, with Christian Eriksen and Casemiro likely to leave the club at the end of the season, and Larsson has emerged as a target.
The official Bundesliga website describes the Swede’s style of play as a combination of Manchester City duo Rodri and Kevin de Bruyne.
The Man United target is an expert breaker-up-of-play, and his close control, skills and technical ability to break lines and thread killer-through balls have put him on the radar of the biggest clubs in Europe.
Larsson has four goals across all competitions this term and would fit perfectly into the style of play of Red Devils head coach Ruben Amorim.
However, convincing him to join Man United could prove tricky as Madrid are very serious about signing him, and joining them ahead of other suitors would be more appealing.
The Old Trafford club will need to qualify for the Champions League next season to have any chance of convincing Larsson.
Their chances of finishing in the top four appear slim right now despite their decent start to life under Amorim.
Man United need one or two midfield signings ahead of next season, and getting someone with the enormous potential of the Frankfurt star for around €50m would be huge.
