Manchester United target Anderson

Manchester United are closing in on the signing of Felipe Anderson with Lazio having already identified a perfect replacement, say reports.

United have been strongly linked with Brazilian attacker Anderson during the first few days of the January window so far.

And now RMC says United are lodging a £36.9million to sign the player with Lazio ready to grab AC Milan’s Stephan El Shaarawy as a replacement.

El Shaarawy is currently on-loan at Monaco but he’s returning this month and Lazio are poised to grab him if United seal the signing of Anderson.

A speedy winger who can play in a more advanced position, Anderson would inject a lot of quality to the Red Devils forward line.
