Manchester United to launch January bid for Tottenham Hotspur's Danny Rose?

Manchester United are reportedly planning to make a move for Tottenham Hotspur left-back Danny Rose when the transfer window reopens in January.

The Red Devils were linked with a swoop for the England international during the summer, but they were unable to secure a deal, despite the 27-year-old criticising Spurs in a newspaper interview.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Jose Mourinho remains interested in Rose, while Chelsea are also keeping tabs on the left-back, but it is believed that United are leading the race.

The Englishman has spent nine months on the sidelines with a knee injury, but is being tipped to make his comeback some point in October.

Ben Davies has taken over the left-back role in Rose's absence.
