With Erik ten Hag joining Manchester United in the summer it is expected that the club will embark on a completely new project under the Dutchman. And a new project needs players to be signed that fit the new manager's style of play.
It is still not clear what positions will be targeted to improve the team under Ten Hag, but one role that could be filled in the upcoming window is at centre-back. With both Phil Jones and Eric Bailly expected to leave Old Trafford, there will be space for another defender in the squad.
The Manchester Evening News understands that United may have reignited their interest in Pau Torres. The Spanish defender was on the club's radar before they signed Raphael Varane last summer but after another impressive campaign with Villarreal this season, United could move for him again.
