Manchester United are reportedly interested in Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi.
The Red Devils may be forced to strengthen their backline this summer, with uncertainty surrounding the futures of Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire.
Erik ten Hag has preferred to utilise Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane as his preferred central defensive pairing.
As a result, Lindelof and Maguire have spent large spells of the season on the bench, and they could look to gain regular playing time elsewhere.
Man United have seemingly begun their search for possible replacements, with Guehi emerging as a potential summer target.

According to journalist Rudy Galetti, the 20-time English champions hold a "concrete interest" in the Palace defender.
"The excellent season of Marc Guehi at Crystal Palace has attracted, for sure, interest from many European clubs," Galetti told GiveMeSport.
"And at the moment, the most concrete one is Manchester United, the team that is monitoring him more closely and that are planning at least two incoming moves to strengthen in the defence in the summer."
Should Man United decide to step up their pursuit, they could face competition from Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.

A recent report also claimed that Liverpool are in the race to sign the Englishman, who has three years left to run on his contract.
Since joining the Eagles from Chelsea in 2021, Guehi has been a mainstay in the Palace defence, making 85 appearances across all competitions.
The centre-back started 37 of the club's 38 Premier League games during the 2022-23 campaign, helping his side finish in 11th position.
Guehi's impressive performances have caught the attention of Gareth Southgate, who has selected him for England's upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers.
