Roma 'keen to take Alex Telles on loan from Manchester United' to cover injury absence of Leonardo Spinazzola but Old Trafford club 'want to sell the Brazilian' who played second fiddle to Luke Shaw at left-back

Roma 'are in talks with Manchester United over a loan move for Alex Telles' as the Italian club look to cover the injury absence of Leonardo Spinazzola.

Brazilian left-back Telles, 28, only signed for United last October in a deal with Porto worth £15.4million.

But thanks to the excellent form of Luke Shaw, he has found opportunities limited at Old Trafford, starting just eight Premier League games.
