Manchester United to make a move for Atletico Madrid star

Gimenez has been in fine form for Uruguay. The defender signed a new long-term contract with Atletico last month, with a £105million buyout clause. But the Manchester Evening News reports that he is on a list of targets of Jose Mourinho. Their No 1 choice remains Tottenham powerhouse Toby Alderweireld, though Spurs are proving tough negotiators. Kalidou Koulibaly, Milan Skriniar and Caglar Soyuncu are also being eyed and as well as Real Madrid’s Raphael Varane.
