Man United and Barcelona target Vanderson has admitted to enjoying the ‘love’ big clubs are showing him.<\/p>\n
The 22-year-old fullback has become a key player at Monaco since joining from Gremio in 2022, making 61 first team appearances already.<\/p>\n
His performances have caught the attention of the Brazilian national side, who handed Vanderson a debut in their 4-1 win over Guinea in June.<\/p>\n
\u00a0United and Barca were both keen on bringing the right back in over the summer, although the latter club looked to persuade him to wait a year due to their financial situation.<\/p>\n
Vanderson has now spoken out on the reports linking him with a high-profile move away from the\u00a0Stade Louis-II.<\/p>\n

In quotes carried by Dario AS, he said: ‘It’s great to hear that Bar\u00e7a and United love you.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘It’s fantastic to know that your name is mentioned in the big clubs. We’re starting the season well with Monaco, now I’m focused only in that’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag was keen to strengthen at right back but ultimately opted against a move last summer due to priorities in other areas.<\/p>\n
Aaron Wan-Bissaka appears to have impressed ten Hag, and the club are now looking to offer the fullback a new contract.<\/p>\n
It comes as a tough time for United’s defence, with Luke Shaw, Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia all unavailable through injury.<\/p>\n
Performances have also been shaky so far, with seven conceded in the first four games of the season.<\/p>\n
A move for Vanderson would have to wait at least until January, but fans will still be hoping for an improved defensive performance when Brighton travel to Old Trafford on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Aaron Wan-Bissaka has entered talks with Man United over a new contract after turning his fortunes around at the club<\/p>\n
