Manchester United are unlikely to secure any signings in the January transfer window and instead focus all their efforts on bringing in a defender in the summer.
According to the Evening Standard , Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly is the club's No.1 transfer target come the end of the seaosn.
The 27-year-old has made 18 Serie A appearances this season and his form has attracted plenty of attention from across Europe.
The Red Devils have made an incredible transformation under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer , winning all nine games since the Norwegian was appointed caretaker boss.
But with just three clean sheets from those nine fixtures Solskjaer will be keen to sure up his defence, should he keep the job.

koulibaly is strong powerful has a good passing range but lacks pace, he is not van dijk or De Ligt, I'm not saying he's not good he is a monster and a very good footballer he can easily solve the defensive problem, but united will still need another one that has pace, because every other defender Utd has lack pace, lindelof is good very good but lacks pace
