Manchester United are poised to end their interest in signing Napoli centre-back Kim Min-jae following several months of speculation.
That is according to a report by Football Insider, which claims that the Reds, who plan to recruit a new centre-back this summer, are set to 'pull out of the race' to sign the South Korean international. United want to bring in a new defensive option this summer, though a lot of it rests on them being able to offload either Harry Maguire or Victor Lindelof first.
Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane have established themselves as United's first-choice centre-backs over the past year or so and Maguire and Lindelof are both hungry for more game time. In the event of that happening, multiple reports in recent months have touted Kim as a possible replacement.
