Manchester United are looking to sign a new left-back in the summer transfer window and have earmarked Eintracht Frankfurt star Nathaniel Brown as a potential target, according to reports.<\/p>\n

The Old Trafford side<\/a> have reportedly entered the race for the highly sought-after defender, who is expected to depart the Bundesliga club after the summer.<\/p>\n

United scouts were reportedly in attendance for Tottenham\u2019s 2-0 win over Frankfurt on Wednesday, as Brown completed 90 minutes in the Champions League encounter.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old is expected to be closely monitored ahead of the summer market, as United assess whether to formalise their interest in the \u2018brilliant\u2019<\/a> defender.<\/p>\n

According to TEAMtalk<\/a>, Brown has no shortage of suitors in the Premier League, having been on the radar of Arsenal and Manchester City over the past couple of months.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old is likely to leave Frankfurt in the summer, with any deal expected to cost in excess of \u00a340m.<\/p>\n

United have reportedly identified a new left-back as one of their three priority signings after the season, along with a new midfielder and a forward.<\/p>\n

The Red Devils have yet to welcome any new signings in January and are not expected to do so, while Joshua Zirkzee could be allowed to leave before Monday\u2019s deadline<\/a> after struggling for minutes under interim head coach Michael Carrick.<\/p>\n

United currently have Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia as left-back options, but with the Dutchman\u2019s deal expiring after the season, the club are likely to seek reinforcements in the position.<\/p>\n

While Patrick Dorgu is admired internally, the Dane is viewed more as a wide player than a defender, following his goalscoring displays against Manchester City and Arsenal.<\/p>\n

Harry Maguire Unlikely to Stay<\/p>\n

United have several contract situations to resolve ahead of the summer, with Malacia, Harry Maguire, Casemiro and Tom Heaton\u2019s deals all expiring.<\/p>\n

While Casemiro has announced he will be leaving Old Trafford at the end of his deal, Maguire is also likely to head in the same direction.<\/p>\n

According to reports, United have yet to offer a contract extension to the 32-year-old defender<\/a> and appear unlikely to do so, as they are keen to see Maguire\u2019s minutes go to Leny Yoro and Ayden Heaven next season.<\/p>\n

Maguire is believed to have interest from multiple Serie A and Premier League clubs, with Italian sides already making enquiries with a view to a pre-contract agreement.<\/p>\n
