Manchester United are considering using Luke Shaw in a swap deal to tempt Tottenham Hotspur to part with Danny Rose in January.
James Nursey of the Mirror (h/t the Manchester Evening News' Charlotte Duncker) reported Shaw might only have until Christmas to prove his long-term value to manager Jose Mourinho. United recently executed a one-year option to tie the defender to Old Trafford until 2019, but he might be used as a makeweight to capture Rose.
Per Nursey, Shaw arrived at the club from Southampton in a £27 million deal after impressing for the Saints in the Premier League.
