Following news of the Red Devils' interest in the promising young Sweden international, fuel will be added to the fire that surrounds the future of PSG striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Manchester United has submitted a bid of $29 million for versatile Benfica defender Victor Lindelof, according to Aftonbladet.
The 21-year-old Swede has been linked with Juventus, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona, though the Red Devils are allegedly the only side to have made an official approach.
The player's buyout clause sits at a mere $33.5 million, which could easily be triggered if United's initial bid is turned down.
