Man Utd lead race for French defender

Manchester United are reportedly leading the chase for Monaco defender Layvin Kurzawa, according to talkSPORT.

The talented defender earned his first cap for the French national side earlier this month following an impressive start to the league campaign with Monaco.

The report claims that the 22-year-old has been tracked by United's scouts in recent months, and he could be granted his dream move to Old Trafford in the upcoming transfer window.

United are currently fourth in the Premier League.
