Manchester United fans react as Brandon Williams eyed by Southampton on loan in January

Manchester United defender Brandon Williams has struggled for games this season, and he could leave the club on loan in January.

According to reports from the Telegraph, Southampton are keen to sign the England Under-21 full-back on loan next month.

The 20-year-old was targeted by the Saints during the summer transfer window as well. However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer blocked the move at that time.

United bolstered their left-back areas having signed Alex Telles from Porto on the deadline day in October. As a result, Williams has dropped further down the pecking order and has managed only six minutes of Premier League football so far.
