JOSE HAS A FULL-BACK IN THE CAN

- BY DAVID McDONNELL

MANCHESTER UNITED are considerin­g a £30million move for Valencia right-back Joao Cancelo. The Portugal star (above) spent last season on loan at Inter Milan, who have a clause in the deal to seal a permanent transfer. But Inter have yet to take up that option, which has alerted United to Cancelo’s potential availabili­ty. Southampto­n’s Portugal defender Cedric Soares is also on the Reds’ radar to give current right-back Antonio Valencia competitio­n.

Jose Mourinho wants two new full-backs this summer and the United boss is close to a £50m deal for Juventus left-back Alex Sandro, with Luke Shaw, Daley Blind and Matteo Darmian all set to leave Old Trafford.

United also want to complete a £50m transfer for Shakhtar Donetsk’s Brazil midfielder Fred.
