Man United want winger in January?

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is reportedly eager to bolster his wide options during the January transfer window.

The Red Devils are believed to have failed in bids to sign Eden Hazard, who opted to join Premier League rivals Chelsea, and Lucas Moura in the summer.

However, despite having Nani, Ashley Young, Antonio Valencia and Shinji Kagawa who can all play on the wing, Ferguson still believes that he needs greater options in that area, according to the Manchester Evening News.

The two players that are said to be under consideration are Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha and Blackpool's Thomas Ince.

FC Porto's James Rodriguez is also thought to be a target, although United may struggle to match the asking price.
