Man Utd get ‘serious’ over the ‘next Nuno Mendes’

Manchester United are reportedly considering Rennes left-back Mahamadou Nagida as a serious permanent transfer target ahead of the January transfer window. With Luke Shaw sidelined by injury and Diogo Dalot filling in, the club is seeking urgent defensive reinforcements and has watched the 21-year-old Cameroon international on multiple occasions.

Nagida's explosive attacking qualities have earned him comparisons to Paris Saint-Germain defender Nuno Mendes. Having seen his estimated transfer value rise to €14.6 million, the former winger has also drawn past interest from clubs including Brighton, AC Milan, and Porto.
