Manchester United hoping to snap up AC Milan defender

Manchester United have reportedly expressed an interest in snapping up AC Milan defender Leonardo Bonucci.

The Serie A giants are currently embroiled in an ownership dispute less than two years on from being taken over by a wealthy Chinese consortium.

As a result, Bonucci’s salary may have to be taken off the wage bill in order to meet the requirements of Financial Fair Play (FFP).

According to Daily Express, Jose Mourinho is keen to strengthen his back line further ahead of a Premier League title tilt and could take advantage of Milan’s financial issues by making a £30m bid for the experienced centre-back.

Man United have made two signings this summer, recruiting Portuguese defender Diogo Dalot from Porto and obtaining the services of Brazil midfielder Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk.
