Report: Manchester United want to sign Feyenoord defender Terence Kongolo

Manchester United are leading the race to sign highly-rated Feyenoord defender Terence Kongolo in the summer, according to reports.

The 20-year-old is a regular in the Rotterdam side, having featured over 20 times for the Dutch club this season.

According to Goal.com, United are favourites to sign Kongolo, with Louis van Gaal reportedly an admirer of the centre-back having given him his Netherlands debut and named him in Holland's 2014 World Cup squad.

Kongolo is also said to be a target for former Feyenoord manager Ronald Koeman at Southampton, while the youngster's brother Rodney plays for Manchester City, who may look to reunite the two.
