Manchester United are believed to be 'very interested' in signing former Borussia Dortmund defender Dan-Axel Zagadou.
According to a report from Media Foot Marseille (as per Sport Witness ), United are one of the clubs that are keen on signing the former Paris Saint-Germain and Borussia Dortmund centre-back. Zagadou made 91 appearances for the German side during his five-year stay with the club but is now available for free after his contract came to an end.
The 23-year-old has struggled with injury and now finds himself without a club after he only made 15 appearances in the Bundesliga last season. The latest news, however, is that United are keen on bringing the defender to Old Trafford but they will need to fend off competition from Inter Milan.

Elsewhere, the Mirror report that United's pursuit of Ajax winger Antony is 'back on'. The Dutch club look set to complete the signing of the Brazilian Francisco Conceicao from Porto, who is rumoured to be the club's replacement for Antony.
Erik ten Hag is believed to be keen on reuniting with his former Ajax player who has impressed during his time in the Eredivisie. Antony played 33 games last season for the Dutch giants, scoring 12 goals and providing 10 assists before an injury saw him miss the end of their campaign.
United are expected to have to pay up to €70m for the 22-year-old should they want him to join their squad before the transfer window closes.
