Devils want first Dibs on Saints midfielder
United have reportedly opened talks to sign Southampton’s Tyler Dibling.
Give Me Sport say the Red Devils believe the midfielder, 19, could operate at wing-back.
Old Trafford Technical director Jason Wilcox is said to be a huge fan of the wideman.
United lost out to Chelsea on whizkid Geovany Quenda.

“The most important thing is starting on the right foot and hopefully get this season put to bed, because it’s been a disaster.
“And hopefully we get some plans in place for the stadium, get some new recruitment in, and give Ruben Amorim the right tools to try and at least get a decent team on the pitch.”
