Felipe Anderson on Man Utd radar

Manchester United are reportedly monitoring the progress of Lazio midfielder Felipe Anderson, with a view to make a bid for his signature in the summer.

The 21-year-old joined the Serie A outfit from Brazilian side Santos in 2013, and has since then become a key-member of the first-team.

Liverpool have been strongly associated with the player's services in recent weeks, but The Telegraph claims that United have joined the pursuit having asked their chief scout to watch the attacking midfielder in action against Hellas Verona last weekend.

It is believed that Lazio would settle for no less than £30m for the Brazil Under-21 international.
