Manchester United target Kyle Walker

Manchester United have added Tottenham's Kyle Walker to their list of potential defensive targets for the summer.


The 24-year-old has four years left on contract and recently returned from nine months out with a pelvic injury.

Walker has already shown glimpses of the form that earned him recognition with England and United are monitoring his performances.

Tottenham would be reluctant to sell and would demand at least £20million.

Manchester United have also considered Nathaniel Clyne at Southampton and Everton's Seamus Coleman while Dani Alves of Barcelona has been offered as he has yet to agree new terms and is free in the summer.

But it remains to be seen if Louis van Gaal can be enticed into pouncing upon another cheap arrival from the Nou Camp, after signing goalkeeper Victor Valdes in January, who was out of contract having departed Barcelona last summer.

The United boss wants a right-back, centre-back, midfielder, a winger and a striker to bolster his squad in the summer.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn
