Fans react to Man United’s reported interest in Fabinho
The Premier League giants Manchester United have been linked with signing Monaco defender Fabinho as they continue to improve their squad ahead of next season.
According to The Sun, the Red Devils have already begin negotiation to try and do a deal before the summer transfer window closes.
The 22-year-old defender, who played alongside Anthony Martial at Stade Louis II before the striker’s move to Old Trafford last summer.
However, Fabinho’s arrival would be a huge setback over Matteo Darmian and Antonio Valencia’s respective futures at Old Trafford.
Here is how Manchester United fans reacted to the rumours on Twitter…!
Fabinho to #MUFC could work as he is very versatile and can play full backs and centre back.

So we’re after Monaco RB Fabinho,He’s better going forward then defending but suppose he’s only 22 so I’m sure he’ll improve on that #MUFC

If #MUFC can sell Darmian + €€€ for Pogba and then buy Fabinho…Mourinho would have absolutely destroyed this summer transfer window

Fabinho is an upgrade to Darmian going forward (attack), but I feel Darmian is a better defender. IMO #MUFC
