Manchester United are keeping tabs on the Turkish defender Ali Sahin Yilmaz.
The 20-year-old Trabzonspor defender is on the radar of the Premier League club and Manchester United scouts have been following him closely. According to Milliyet, they are impressed with the central defender’s recent performances and they have submitted a positive report about him to the Premier League side.
It will be interesting to see if Manchester United follow up on their interest with an official proposal in the coming weeks. The Red Devils have a proven track record when it comes to nurturing young players and they will be hoping to help him develop further.
The opportunity to join Manchester United will be quite attractive for the young defender as well. It would be an exciting step up in his career and he would get to prove himself in English football.

 
Man United could look to snap up the young defender
Other clubs are keeping tabs on the 20-year-old central defender as well, but it is fair to assume that Manchester United have the resources to get the deal done. It will be interesting to see if they step up their interest in the player and submit an official proposal in the coming months. Yilmaz will look to fulfil his tremendous potential in the coming seasons and Manchester United could provide him with the platform he requires.
The Red Devils could certainly use more quality and depth in the defensive unit and the 20-year-old could develop into an important first team player for them with the right guidance. Regular football in England could accelerate his development as well.
The defender has a contract with Trabzonspor until 2027, and he is unlikely to be a cheap acquisition. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops over the next few months.
