Man Utd keeping tabs on Bayer Leverkusen defender Edmond Tapsoba

Manchester United are keeping tabs on Bayer Leverkusen defender Edmond Tapsoba.

United chiefs have agreed to sign a new centre-half in January.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano is reporting United are looking at Tapsoba. The central defender was linked with the fallen English giants over the summer.

At the beginning of September he extended his contract with Leverkusen to 2028.

However, this will not deter United from continuing to monitor the Burkina Faso international ahead of the winter market.
