Manchester United are said to be pushing to sign Juventus defender Gleison Bremer.

The Brazilian is 27 and is seen as the ideal profile to shore up the team's backline.

Bremer may be available in the summer, with Juventus willing to sell for a hefty fee.

Per Il Corriere dello Sport, a deal in the £50 million region would suit all parties.

Whether United are willing to splash such a sum on a defender remains unclear.

The club is in a financially healthy position, but also has issues pertaining to FFP rules.
