Report: Manchester United scout Felipe Anderson

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Lazio midfielder Felipe Anderson at the end of the season.

Liverpool have been strongly linked with a move for the 21-year-old, who joined Lazio from Brazilian club Santos in 2013.

However, according to The Telegraph, Man United are firmly in the race and sent their chief scout to watch the attacking midfielder in action against Hellas Verona on Sunday – a game where Anderson was on the scoresheet.

It is thought that Lazio will demand in the region of £30m for the youngster, who has two Brazilian Under-21 caps to his name.
