Manchester United have been linked with making a summer move for Borussia Dortmund’s Marc Bartra.

Spanish journalist Gerard Romero claims that the Dortmund defender is a target for Jose Mourinho, who is still looking to strengthen his defence, despite the £31m addition of Victor Lindelof from Benfica.

Bartra moved from Barcelona to Dortmund in 2016 after struggling to break into the Catalans first team on a consistent basis. He was however restricted to just 14 appearances during his debut season due to a number of injuries.

He also suffered a broken wrist during a horrifying attack on the Borussia Dortmund team bus before their Champions League fixture against Monaco.

No bid has been made for the defender at the moment, with United believed to be just sounding out his potential availability. However this interest could suggest that more than one defender could be leaving Old Trafford this summer.
