Man United eye shock move for West Ham defender Malick Diouf

Man United are reportedly keen on a shock move for West Ham defender Malick Diouf.

The 21-year-old only moved to the East London club from Slavia Prague last summer but has been a bright spark as West Ham fight against relegation.

According to The Guardian, Man United have identified Diouf as a target as they seek to provide competition for Luke Shaw.

It’s understood that West Ham are aware they will likely have to sell some prized assets this summer after the club posted losses of 3104.2m for the previous financial year.

The report insists that Man United’s priority remains their midfielder, however, and any move for Diouf would be dependent on other business.
