MANCHESTER UNITED have launched a late move for Real Madrid star Eduardo Camavinga, according to reports in Spain.
Despite ex-United and new Real boss Jose Mourinho declaring their window shut, United’s planned opening bid of £43million might turn heads.

It’s Spanish outlet ‘Cadena SER’ who claim the news to be true, in what would be a knee-jerk reaction from United.
They’ve already brought in Youri Tielemans, Andrey Santos and most recently long-term target Carlos Baleba from Brighton.

But following an underwhelming performance against Hull, in which Tielemans and Santos were hooked at the same time, perhaps United are seeking further reinforcements.
Two-time Champions League winner Camavinga has fallen down the pecking order in the Spanish capital.

GETTING SHIRTY
Man Utd forced to change kit after breaking little-known Premier League rule
He’s been out of sorts for a few seasons and Mourinho seems to prefer Tchoumaeni, Valverde and new signing Bernardo Silva.
While Chelsea are also reportedly in the race, reports from Spain suggest United have £80million left to spend on Camavinga and Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde.
Finding a left-back is unquestionably a more pressing issue for United than another midfielder.
It’s been one of their primary assignments all summer and despite long-term interest in Lewis Hall and recent links to Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly – Michael Carrick‘s team are still yet to get one in.

And in another blow, it was reported today that Balde wants to stay at Barca, instead of make the move to Manchester.
The situation seems to be the same for Camavinga, who would reportedly rather stay at Los Blancos – it’s set to be a hectic end to the window for United and Carrick.
