Premier League trio want Fabio Coentrao

Premier League giants Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United could reportedly fight it out for the services of Real Madrid defender Fabio Coentrao in the winter transfer window.

The Portugal international was close to a loan switch to the Red Devils in the summer of 2013, until manager Carlo Ancelotti opted to cancel his proposed move.

According to The Express, Arsenal and Liverpool will join Manchester United in the pursuit of talented full-back in the turn of the year.

The report adds that the likes of AC Milan and Besiktas are also monitoring the player's transfer status.
