According to rumours, Manchester United are looking to hijack Arsenal’s deal for Radu Dragusin.

The Red Devils are looking to sign a centre-back in January after conceding goals in the Champions League.

Radu Dragusin is on Manchester United and Arsenal’s radar.

Manchester United have surrendered 14 goals in five European games this season, and their chances of progressing are currently dangling by a thread after drawing 3-3 with Galatasaray.

Dragusin is also a target for the Red Devils in order to improve their defensive situation.

The 21-year-old Romanian international has been compared to former United captain Nemanja Vidic.

Dragusin rose through the ranks at Juventus and now plays for Serie A club Genoa.

They had the defender on loan last season before making the transfer permanent in the summer for roughly £5 million.

He signed a contract with Genoa until 2027, but it includes a £26 million release clause.

According to Romanian publication ProSport, United is in advanced talks with the player about potentially invoking the clause.

Dragusin’s agent, Florin Manea, previously revealed that he has been in talks with a number of Premier League clubs about a transfer.

“I also send them messages and engage in conversations. There are teams that inquire about Dragusin.
