Man Utd eye move for Charlie Taylor

Manchester United will reportedly make a January bid for Leeds United full-back Charlie Taylor following a season ending injury to Luke Shaw.

Shaw is likely to be out for at least six months after he suffered a double leg fracture during his side's 2-1 Champions League defeat at Eindhoven last night.

According to The Star, United could line up a move for 21-year-old Taylor, who has caught the eye of the club's scouts over the past year.

It is added that Van Gaal will accelerate the club's pursuit of the young full-back following the long-term injury to the England international.

United are most likely to utilise the services of Marcos Rojo at left-back following the void left by Shaw.
