Napoli defender Kim Min-jae has emerged as a Manchester United target once more, a few short years after Jose Mourinho turned down the chance to sign the centre-back.
Kim, 26, joined Napoli from Fenerbahce in the summer as the Partenopei sought a replacement for Kalidou Koulibaly when the Senegal star joined Chelsea. The South Korea international has made an instant impact, so much so that the club are said to be pushing for a contract renewal amid reports of winter interest from United.
The former Beijing Guoan man has been a fixture in Luciano Spalletti's defence as Napoli have opened up a huge lead in the Serie A title race, while also helping them put one foot in the Champions League quarter-finals. However, reports from the continent suggest Man Utd have been alerted to a £42m release clause in his contract.
