Manchester United keen on £30m deal for Valencia

Manchester United are reportedly considering a £30m move for Valencia right-back Joao Cancelo this summer.

The Portugal defender has enjoyed an impressive season while out on loan at Italian side Inter Milan, who as yet have not decided to take up a deal to make the 23-year-old a permanent fixture at the San Siro.

United boss Jose Mourinho is understood to be keen on strengthening at full-back this season, with moves also being considered for Southampton’s Cedric Soares and Juventus left-back Alex Sandro.

According to reports, Inter’s lack of movement on a clause to bring Cancelo to Italy has alerted Mourinho to a possible deal being done for the right-back’s services this summer.

Cancelo has been primarily deployed as a full-back during his time at Inter, but can also play in a holding midfield role.
