Monaco's Badiashile confirms Manchester United transfer approach

Monaco centre-back Benoit Badiashile has confirmed that he was the subject of a transfer approach from Manchester United last summer.

Badiashile was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford after an impressive 2019-20 campaign at Stade Louis II.

The 19-year-old has now admitted that he snubbed the Red Devils in order to further his career with Monaco, who he has helped re-emerge as a major force in Ligue 1 this season.
