Premier League rivals Chelsea are reportedly set to challenge Manchester United for the signing of AS Monaco right-back Vanderson.

Vanderson has been linked to United on multiple occasions throughout his career but a transfer to Old Trafford has never got over the line.

The player was mentioned to be on United’s radar as recently as the summer transfer window.

A report covered by The Peoples Person claimed that the Red Devils wanted Vanderson as a replacement for Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Wan-Bissaka ended up joining West Ham while United brought in Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich to offset the Englishman’s departure.

Alongside United, Tottenham Hotspur were thought to be the other top Premier League side keen on adding Vanderson to their ranks.

CaughtOffside now reveal that Chelsea have entered the race to land the 23-year-old and are unlikely to have any problems paying what Monaco want to part ways with him.

“Monaco right-back Vanderson is attracting strong interest from Chelsea ahead of upcoming transfer windows, while Manchester United and Tottenham are also among his admirers, CaughtOffside understands.”

“Monaco want around €35-40m (£30-34million) to sell Vanderson, and while the strongest interest is currently understood to be coming from Chelsea, it’s not surprising to see that Man Utd and Spurs are also keen on the Brazilian.”

CaughtOffside note that the Brazilian’s future and how the situation develops is one to keep a close eye on in the near future.

So far this term, Vanderson has featured in all three of Monaco’s Ligue 1 matches. He has started two of these matches.

He has helped his side keep two clean sheets while registering an assist in the process.
