Fenerbahce have opened talks to sign Man Utd defender

Fenerbahce have opened talks with Manchester United over the potential transfer of Victor Lindelof this summer.

The Sweden international has been a back-up centre-back for the Red Devils, but he could be sold in the coming weeks.

His current deal expires at the end of next season and as things stand, the club have not opened talks over a possible renewal.

It is now reported that Fenerbahce have made contact with United over the potential transfer of the former Benfica man.

Lindelof was signed for United by manager Jose Mourinho in 2017. The Portuguese is currently the head coach at Fenerbahce.

He has reportedly recommended the purchase of the Swede, but United are unlikely to let him go on the cheap this summer.

United value him in the region of €15m and they are reluctant to accept anything less for the experienced centre-back.

Lindelof is said to be happy to stay at United, but he would be open to playing regular first-team football elsewhere.
