Manchester United have identified France Under-19s defender Benoit Badiashile as an alternative to top target Harry Maguire, according to reports.
Manchester United do not feel Maguire is worth more than the £75million Liverpool paid for Virgil van Dijk and are growing tired of negotiating with the Foxes.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has started to look at alternatives to the England international in a bid to make sure United have someone new in defence before the season starts.
And French publication L'Equipe is reporting that the Red Devils have identified Monaco's Badiashile as a perfect alternative.
The 18-year-old centre back has been on Wolves' radar in recent months, but Manchester United have reportedly been keeping tabs on him from a distance for the past few seasons.
The youngster is valued at around £30million, which is considerably less than the £85million the Red Devils are expected to pay for Maguire.
What's more, the teenager would fit in with Solskjaer's recruitment strategy of signing young and talented players before they reach their prime.

How Maguire price tag become too expensive, had I known came last, if Manchester United management supported Jose Mourinho to sign this guy last season his price tag wasn't like this before, it's about £45m at that time but now look at a huge amount of money Leceister city are planning to sell him. Hmmmmm this is too much,

what's wrong with buying Bruno Fernandez first if back player is still a problem to get because of "not worth that a mount "wood ward is Gona make the work of Olle very hard by not signing guys we believe can bring Gud change in the club . to me wood ward could also be the big problem in the club you want the club to perform beta you don't want expensive and talented players .guys if not don't even except good performance from the club . leave Gud players for Manchester City will show you what it means having gud talented players during the season

I do agree that we have still have the dead wood from last year, season hasn’t started yet but I’m concerned because Ollie was so clear in last seasons comments about these/ players need to be changed. It seems he happy with the same faces, yes we have 2 new players for the future but they won’t be setting the world alight. Another bad season awaits perhaps. If we don’t get things moving in the right direction this season if will be a very long time before we back to the top because the other teams outside top 4 are building & improving correctly.

Leicester city doesn't want to sell Maguire. Let them keep him and another club will get him on less than £50 and he will also regret.

axel is better if we cannot sign an established defender then better we strengthen the midfield and the striking force than wasting money on maguire no way

Man Utd had the chance to buy Manolas. Has played 3 years in champions league. Beated Barcelona in quarter final. Has composure to stay on the ground. Is a good leader. Was an absolute bargain at 36£ million. And they still went on for Maguire who has 0 experience in ultimate club level.

New movie 🎥 actor Maguire sponsored by Leceister and Man U until transfer season end Half price for old movie like Griezman and De Ligt

I think 80 ml by Maguire is Worth. The better plan for Manu to sing Koulibaly for 100 ml. Koulibaly is One of the best and defender in the World now.

I think we should go all out for De Ligt. Macguire suits City style of play more than United style

Though I lack the conviction to go flat out for a Maguire, I'm sure ManU needs some experience at the back. Ffs latest get someone more developed. Rebuilding on the cheap with unproven youngsters through and through is too risky

i think fifa should interven a player transfer value should be determined by hi salary, teams are ruining football and players future.
if a player earns £5 a week he should cost less,
