Manchester United 's hunt for defensive reinforcements has led them to Spain Under-21 international Sergio Gomez, with the youngster fielding questions about interest from the Premier League side.
The 21-year-old, who came through Barcelona 's academy, spent time with Borussia Dortmund before signing for Vincent Kompany's Anderlecht over the season. Often deployed at left-back, he has had plenty of joy getting forward, scoring six times for the Belgian side and already reaching double figures for assists.
Interest in Gomez comes as first-choice left-back Luke Shaw has voiced his concerns about the situation at Old Trafford. The England international is still expected to be offered a new deal by United, but has been clear about the contrast between playing for United and representing the England national side.
