Ole Gunnar Solskjaer opted against moving for RB Leipzig's Dayot Upamecano as the Manchester United manager wants a left-footed centre-back, according to reports.
Upamecano is set to join German Bayern Munich in a £38.5million move after the German champions activated the French defender's release clause.
The centre-back is widely-regarded as one of the top defenders in Europe with Liverpool and Chelsea also believed to be keen on him before his Bayern agreement.
But according to ESPN, the Red Devils chose not to rival Bayern for Upamecano as they do not fit their requirements as a left-sided defender.
