Manchester United Transfer News: Alex Sandro a Priority in Latest Rumours

Manchester United will reportedly prioritise the signing of Juventus left-back Alex Sandro this summer.

According to Samuel Luckhurst of the Manchester Evening News, the Red Devils are keen to improve their full-back options and are ready to push hard to secure the Brazilian to replace Luke Shaw.

"It is understood United's interest in Tottenham defender Danny Rose has cooled and Jose Mourinho is prepared to let Celtic youngster Kieran Tierney move to another Premier League club as he targets Brazil international Sandro," added Luckhurst.

In a potential boost to United, Sandro is said to be a major doubt to be included in the Brazil squad for the FIFA World Cup this summer.
