Rio Ferdinand believes Manchester United should divert their attention elsewhere by snapping up FC Porto star Mehdi Taremi.
United are keen to sign Wout Weghorst on loan for the remainder of the season, with negotiations over a move ongoing. Weghorst is currently on loan at Besiktas from Burnley.
However, Ferdinand does not necessarily believe Weghorst is the best option for United. Speaking via his YouTube show Vibe with Five, the 44-year-old said: ''I’d have gone and got Taremi in from Porto.''
