Manchester United are in advanced talks to sign French defender Jonathan Clauss this summer

Manchester United are close to signing French international right back Jonathan Clauss according to reports from various publications. The French wing-back was of interest Marseille, Atletico Madrid, and Chelsea, but it looks like United have stolen ahead with their deal. The 29-year-old French international has been a revelation for Franck Haise’s side and will cost about 10 million Euros.

Clauss came up with the side to Ligue 1 in the 2020/21 season and has been impressive since his top-flight debut. He scored five goals and recorded 11 assists as Lens finished an impressive 7th in Ligue 1 last campaign. He will provide able competition for Aaron Wan Bissaka & Diogo Dalot on the right under Erik Ten Hag.
