France defender Jonathan Clauss could become Erik ten Hag 's fourth signing as Manchester United manager after the Red Devils reportedly entered advanced talks with RC Lens.
With Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez - subject to a medical, personal terms and a UK work visa - already confirmed by the club, claims from Portugal suggest that Clauss, 29, is in line to join them at Old Trafford ahead of the new season.
Ten Hag has been keen to upgrade United's squad in multiple positions, with defence and wide areas no exception. Their potential new addition certainly offers quality in both respects, as Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Diogo Dalot will be looking over their shoulder while on tour in Australia.
