Manchester United have entered the race for 21-year-old English midfielder Jack Hinshelwood of Brighton.
According to Teamtalk, the Manchester hierarchy are weighing up a move for the player to strengthen their central midfield and add much-needed depth to the squad.
The main contender for the player at this moment remains Arsenal, who are actively working on a deal. Brighton have already set a firm financial valuation for their homegrown talent.
Hinshelwood is impressively versatile, excelling both as a defensive midfielder and at right-back, making him an attractive prospect for Michael Carrick.
The Red Devils aim to shore up another midfielder's position before the transfer window closes and are closely monitoring Arsenal's discussions with the Seagulls.
The south coast club is only open to selling Hinshelwood at the established transfer price.
