Borussia Dortmund left-back Ramy Bensebaini admits that he would be interested in joining Manchester United.

Borussia Dortmund left-back Ramy Bensebaini has admitted that he would be interested in joining Manchester United.

The 28-year-old only joined Dortmund in the summer on a free transfer upon the expiration of his contract at fellow Bundesliga club Borussia Monchengladbach.

Bensebaini has since started 16 of his 21 appearances for BVB in all competitions this season, including 11 Bundesliga starts and four in the Champions League group stage.

The 55-cap Algeria international still has over three years remaining on his contract at Westfalenstadion, but he has hinted at a possible early exit from the German club.

Speaking about his future in an interview with Algerian news outlet La Gazette du Fennec, as quoted by CaughtOffside, Bensebaini said: "As for Manchester United, we'll see.

"I'm slowly getting older, I'm [nearly] 30 years old now, but we'll see. God willing!"

"I felt good on my debut at Borussia Dortmund," Bensebaini added. "I know the players, I have played against them several times. It's not the same pressure and environment as in Gladbach.

"I have had a good relationship with the coach (Edin Terzic) since day one. He is a coach, I am a player, there are choices to make. If he decides to put me on the bench, I will still be a little angry, but I respect".

Man United manager Erik ten Hag is believed to be keen to bolster his squad in the New Year and could push for the addition of a new left-back such as Bensebaini amid uncertainty over the long-term future of Tottenham Hotspur loanee Sergio Reguilon.

The Spaniard, who has recently attracted interest from none other than Dortmund, arrived at Old Trafford on a temporary basis in the summer after both Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia picked up long-term injuries.

While Shaw has since returned to first-team action, Malacia is yet to play this season under Ten Hag, who has also used Diogo Dalot, Victor Lindelof and Sofyan Amrabat on the left side of defence.

Bensebaini is not the only Dortmund player believed to be keen on a move to Man United, as The Express recently reported that Donyell Malen would welcome a transfer to Old Trafford amid speculation over a possible swap deal involving out-of-favour winger Jadon Sancho.
