From the source
Manchester United are among the teams keeping tabs on FC Twente teenager Ruud Nijstad. The 18-year-old is of interest to top teams across Europe after breaking into the first-team at the Eredivisie side.
The left-sided centre-back has made 38 senior appearances for Twente and has represented the Netherlands at various age groups, up to u-19 level. Nijstad has emerged as a potential candidate for Manchester United, report The Athletic, as the Red Devils plan to overhaul their defence.
Lisandro Martinez’s future is uncertain as his contract approaches its expiry next summer, though United hold an option to extend. However, Martinez’s recent criticism of the club’s board could lead to an exit.
