Manchester United are reportedly interested in bringing Juventus‘ seasoned defender Danilo to Old Trafford, while interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy is keen to remain in a role at the club once his temporary tenure ends.
With new Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim set to take charge, The Sun reports that Danilo could be on his January transfer radar.
The 33-year-old Juventus and Brazil captain is reportedly exploring opportunities beyond Turin, with his agent reaching out to multiple clubs, including United.
As United looks to strengthen defensively, Danilo’s experience and leadership could prove valuable for Amorim’s team rebuild, offering a potential short-term solution to shore up United’s backline.
Manchester United have confirmed the appointment of Ruben Amorim as their new head coach after parting ways with Erik ten Hag.
The club’s announcement follows confirmation from Portuguese club Sporting CP that United had made contact regarding their manager.
Amorim, 39, has committed to a contract running until June 2027, with an option for an additional year.
The club agreed to pay Sporting an additional €1 million (£840,000) on top of the €10 million (£8.4 million) release clause to expedite his move from the Portuguese side, bypassing a 30-day notice period.
With rumours swirling across Europe, January is set to be a pivotal month for top clubs and national teams alike as coaching decisions and potential transfers begin to take shape.
