Manchester United wants to sign Monaco defender Wilfried Singo

manchester united are considering a move for Monaco defender Wilfried Singo as Erik ten Hag looks to renew its team this summer, according to a report from Transfers.

The report claims that United “want to sign” the 23-year-old full-back and that he is on Manchester United's “wish list” ahead of the summer. transfer window. Fichajes says United are targeting up to five Ligue 1 signings with Singo among their top targets.

Singo has established himself as a key player for Monaco since joining the club from Torino at the start of the season. He has a long-term contract with the Ligue 1 team and Monaco is under no pressure to sell.

The Ivorian is valued at £15 million per Transfer market, but it's fair to assume that Monaco's asking price could be higher. Therefore, Manchester United may have to pay a premium in order to sign the defender.

Singo is versatile enough to operate as both a right back and a central defender. He could prove to be a useful player for Erik ten Hag during injuries and rotation.

Manchester United have conceded 32 goals in 23 league games and will need to strengthen their defense. It is no surprise that they are looking at Singo, who has been a reliable player for Monaco.

Wan-Bissaka replacement?

Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been linked to estrangement coming from Man Utd and the Monaco star could be his replacement. The opportunity to move to Old Trafford is likely to be an attractive option for the player if United formalize their interest in him and agree a deal.

Singo has the physical and technical attributes to adapt to English football and could improve further with training and experience. Regular football in England could accelerate his development and help him realize his potential.

It will be interesting to see if the Red Devils make an official proposal to sign him at the end of the season.
