Three players have now been linked with a move to Manchester United, including a shock Chelsea star.
United are yet to make any signings so far in this window, although three departures have been confirmed, namely; Donny van de Beek, Sergio Reguilon, and Hannibal Mejbri.
Last week, reports emerged that the Red Devils were considering the possibility of signing Karim Benzema on loan from Al Ittihad for the remainder of the season.

It is understood that no formal proposal has been presented to the Frenchman yet but United would appreciate the 36-year-old's experience and the fact he would provide competition for Rasmus Hojlund.
Nevertheless, three more players are now said to have piqued the interest of those at Old Trafford, including Chelsea outcast Trevoh Chalobah. According to Fichajes, the Blues are open to the sale of the 24-year-old, as he is not in Mauricio Pochettino's plans.
United boss Erik ten Hag is said to be in search of a reliable centre-back, as Raphael Varane's is uncertain at the club. The English giants do face competition for Chalobah's signature though, as West Ham United and Napoli are also reportedly assessing the player.
Another star linked with United is Real Sociedad forward Mikel Oyarzabal. It is noted that the Premier League heavyweights are only planning to trigger the Spaniard's €60 million (R1.2 billion) release clause at the end of the season, as he is considered a potential replacement for Jadon Sancho.
However, with Aston Villa also said to be be interested in the 26-year-old, the reports suggests that he would opt for a move to Villa Park due to his relationship with manager Unai Emery.
Meanwhile, journalist Florian Plettenberg claims that United have asked about the possibility of signing striker Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna.
The 22-year-old is one of the targets for the next window after registering seven goals and two assists in Serie A. He is also said to have a release clause of €40 million (R822 million).
