Manchester United are mulling over a summer approach for Fenerbahce youngster Ozan Tufan. The 21-year-old featured for Turkey at the European championships in France.

Turkish outlet Hurriyet says United scouts were keeping a close eye on Tufan during his spell with his national side at Euro 2016.

Jose Mourinho is thought to have been impressed with the player's showing, and a move could be in the offing for his services in the upcoming transfer window.

Tufan, who primarily operates as a holding midfielder, can also feature at right-back. Everton, Southampton and Sunderland are also interested in pursuing the versatile player over the summer.

Fenerbahce are likely to demand at least three times the price (£5.8m) they paid to recruit the player from Bursaspor last summer.
