Transfer: Man Utd working on deals for 3 defenders after Zirkzee medical

Manchester United are working on three centre-back deals simultaneously, according to Sky Sports.

The Red Devils have already made Bologna striker, Joshua Zirkzee, their first signing of the INEO era.

Zirkzee underwent his medicals with the Premier League side on Friday.

United will continue talks for Bayern Munich defender, Matthijs de Ligt, who is most likely to become the next completed transfer.

The 24-year-old is keen to move to Old Trafford, with talks having been positive with the Bundesliga side.

Meanwhile, United are considering if to try again for Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite after having two bids rejected.

The latest offer believed to be in the region of £45m plus £5m in add-ons, has already been rejected.

And in a third potential transfer, United are not ready to give up on Lille defender, Leny Yoro, despite his preference being a move to Real Madrid.

Lille would prefer for Yoro to move to Old Trafford, as United have met their £42m (€50m) asking price whereas Real are yet to match the offer.
