Manchester United fans would like to see the club make a move for Benfica defender Ruben Dias this summer, after they were linked with the player by Portuguese media.
Correio da Manha reported on Friday that United had sent scouts to watch the centre-back in action during a friendly against Anderlecht and that the club are now considering tabling an offer for the player.
Could United be in the hunt for an £85m blockbuster signing this summer? Check out the video below…
Time could be of the essence though, with the outlet believing that Benfica want to tie him down a contract that would see an €88m (£79.01m) release clause added, well up from the €66m (£59.26m) clause in his current deal.
Dias was a key part of Benfica’s league winning side last term, making 55 appearances in all competitions as a first-choice defender.
He’s also a firm fixture in the Portugal national team, starting their last ten matches and helping them win the UEFA Nations League this summer.
As defensive options go, he has a strong profile and some fans believe he could be a top signing, potentially better than Harry Maguire, who United have been extensively linked with.
