According to Tuttomercato, the Red Devils have approached Real Madrid to sign the veteran defender.

Alaba is set to leave the Los Blancos on a free transfer this summer.

Man United are in the market for a new centre-back, and the Austrian is one of the defenders the Premier League club is said to be looking at.

Alaba, 33, made just 47 appearances over the last three seasons.

Meanwhile, in another development, Bournemouth winger Eli Junior Kroupi has emerged as an option for Arsenal.

As per the BBC, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta admires Kroupi, who scored 13 goals in his debut Premier League season.

While Kroupi is reportedly valued at over £80 million by Bournemouth, Arsenal could make a move for him if they lose Leandro Trossard or Gabriel Martinelli this summer.
