One of United’s priorities is believed to be reinforcing the defence, with Juventus centre-back Bremer emerging as a serious target.
Manchester United show interest in Juventus' Bremer
Reports in Italy, featured by The Daily Star, claim the Brazilian defender has attracted interest from both Manchester United and Liverpool ahead of the summer market.
Juventus could reportedly consider offers for the 29-year-old, whose current contract includes a £50 million release clause.
Bremer is said to be eager to compete for major honours during the peak years of his career, especially with Juventus facing uncertainty over Champions League qualification.
The experienced defender has been a regular figure for the Italian giants and remains part of Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil plans.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are also monitoring Borussia Dortmund full-back Julian Ryerson. The Norwegian defender has impressed in the Bundesliga this season and is viewed as strong competition for Diogo Dalot at right-back.
However, reports suggest any move for Ryerson could depend on Noussair Mazraoui leaving Old Trafford this summer. Ryerson is believed to be valued at around £26 million with two years remaining on his current deal.
