Man Utd set sights on signing Brazilian defender

Manchester United have their sights on landing Juventus defender Gleison Bremer at the end of the campaign, according to Corriere dello Sport.

The Red Devils are expected to part ways with Raphael Varane when his contract expires at the end of the current season.

He is currently the highest earner at £350,000-a-week and United have no plans of prolonging his stay on his present salary.

A huge pay-cut could pave the way for a renewal, but it seems unlikely that the World Cup winner will accept such a proposal.

Hence, the club are likely to invest on a marquee centre-back and it is claimed that Bremer is the priority target for the summer.

The Red Devils are pressing to land his signature. It is claimed that an offer of more than €60 million could tempt Juventus to sell.

Bremer has his sights on playing in the Premier League, but he is unlikely to force an exit against the wishes of the Bianconeri.
