Mina impressed for Colombia at the 2018 World Cup

Manchester United are reportedly preparing a £35m transfer offer for Barcelona defender Yerry Mina.

The Red Devils are eyeing the Colombian World Cup star after his impressive performances throughout his country’s campaign, which ended at the hands of England in the last 16.

According to , Jose Mourinho has switched targets after initially weighing up a move for Leicester’s Harry Maguire, but being put off by his £60m price tag.

Mina will likely cost a little over half of that fee and is more likely to be available given the fact Barca have now signed Clement Lenglet.

The 23-year-old has also been linked with Everton and Wolves, though a potential move to United would almost certainly trump those two options.

He cost Barcelona £10.5m when they signed him from Palmeiras in January.
