Man Utd keen on Mustafi

Manchester United will offer stiff competition to Bayern Munich in the pursuit of Valencia defender Shkodran Mustafi.

The German international has been a consistent performer for Los Che over the past year, this is said to have attracted interest from top European sides.

Fichajes says the World Cup winner is eager to find pastures new in the summer with Gary Neville's side struggling to keep up with the best in the Spanish league.

The report adds that the Red Devils are most likely to step up their interest in their long-term target as they seek to bolster their backline for the next campaign.

German champions Bayern Munich are understood to be monitoring the developments.
