Manuel Ugarte is still seemingly Man United's top defensive midfield target, but several alternatives are emerging ahead of the summer transfer window closing this month
Danilo, 23, has made 49 appearances for Forest across all competitions over the last 18 months since signing from the Brazilian club Palmeiras for a reported £18million. The former Brazil international has played five times against United during that time, including in their 2-1 defeat at the City Ground late last year.
TNT Sports reports that Milan are the other club to enquire about Danilo. However, Fabrizio Romano reports that the Italian team are signing Monaco midfielder Youssouf Fofana after agreeing to a €25million deal. Milan spending at least £55m on the two midfielders seems unlikely, especially considering the business they have already done this summer. They have already spent around £44m on signing Alex Jimenez, Alvaro Morata, Emerson Royal and Strahinja Pavlovic after only sanctioning £25m worth of sales.
Danilo potentially being available for around half that price could leave United with a decision to make. Burnley's Sander Berge, who United are seemingly interested in this summer, is also said to be available for around £30m.
