Manchester United have been offered the opportunity to sign Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Junior, according to a report.

Manchester United have reportedly been offered the opportunity to sign Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior.

The 21-year-old was a regular for Los Blancos during the 2020-21 campaign, making 49 appearances in all competitions, but the Brazilian is allegedly available this summer, as Los Blancos look to balance the books ahead of a potential move for Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe.

Man United and Real Madrid are already in talks over a deal for Raphael Varane, but according to The Mirror, the 20-time English champions have also been offered the chance to sign Vinicius.

The report claims that Carlo Ancelotti's side want £68.5m for the South American, but the Red Devils could potentially sign him on loan for the 2021-22 campaign with a view to a permanent deal next year.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team have allegedly made it clear that they would be interested in the attacker, who has scored 14 times and registered 23 assists in 118 appearances for Real Madrid.

Vinicius made four appearances for Brazil at this summer's Copa America and was a second-half substitute in his country's 1-0 loss to Argentina in the final of the competition.
